The following packages have been upgraded in the Cygwin distribution:
* m4 1.4.19
An implementation of the traditional Unix macro processor. It is mostly
SVR4 compatible although it has some extensions (for example, handling
more than 9 positional parameters to macros). GNU m4 also has built-in
functions for including files, running shell commands, doing arithmetic,
etc.
For more information see the project home pages:

without linking to GNU libsigsegv.

* A number of portability improvements inherited from gnulib.
Noteworthy changes in release 1.4.18b (2021-05-07) [beta]
* The symbol hash table now defaults to 65537 buckets instead of 509, as
modern systems have enough memory to benefit from fewer hash collisions
by default.
* Introduce the use of gettext, with the immediate benefit of nicer
UTF-8 author names. Over time, more translations of program messages
will become available.
* A number of portability improvements inherited from gnulib.
