Cygwin Package gettext 0.22

[Brian Inglis]

Cygwin Package gettext 0.22 and previous versions have required a number of 
patches to build gettext as if under Linux rather than Windows.

Attached are the latest Cygwin patches applied to the "native" Cygwin build of 
the latest gettext.
It would be nice if you could ever find some time to consider these, and apply 
or make these (or equivalent changes) part of your sources.

Cygwin cygport builds extract upstream sources into an origsrc tree, copy to 
parallel src "working" tree to allow config changes, and copy to or link from 
parallel build tree, so changes are manually applied to src tree files, and 
patches generated from diffs of {orig,}src/... paths, like git {a,b}/ paths.
Those patches (and those for older versions) are also available in the package 
build repo:

        https://cygwin.com/git/?p=git/cygwin-packages/gettext.git

with package source and metadata at:

        https://cygwin.com/packages/summary/gettext-src.html

The mingw64-x86_64-gettext package build, and source and metadata, which we have 
already discussed, are available at similar links.

[Background: Historically Cygwin behaved more like Solaris, before Linux became 
commercially popular, and supported Windows compatibility in more ways than now.
Cygwin makes every possible effort to conform to the latest POSIX standards, 
support BSD and Linux features that do not depend on OS sources, and uses newlib 
as its base libc/libm, as that library is used in embedded "Unix" development 
hosted by Cygwin under Windows.
Cygwin has dropped some Windows compatibility, unsupported Windows versions, and 
32 bit support, while still providing as much Windows interoperability as 
possible, including new WSL/Unix compatibility features such as Windows hard 
links and case-sensitive directories/trees.]
