As we have had no response over the last few weeks from the current 
official maintainer of gengetopt, Rafel Amer Ramon, and my Cygwin 
packages are the only ones documented to have gengetopt as a dependency,

*please add me as co-maintainer of gengetopt,*

so I can upload x86 release.

We also appear to have downstream projects and app developers using the 
package.
