This is a follow-up to
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/cygwin/2020-July/245623.html
As I explained there, a patch applied to the Cygwin build causes php to often
call mmap with MAP_FIXED, and some of these calls fail. Removing the relevant
hunk of the patch fixes the reported problem, and I don't see any reason why
that hunk should be needed.
Obviously Yaakov had a reason for applying that hunk, and I'm guessing (hoping)
that the reason is no longer applicable.
Ideally, someone should ITA php and deal with this. That person will not be me.
I don't use php and I know nothing about it. If no one steps forward, I would
be willing to do a one-time non-maintainer upload.
I'm attaching the revised patch and a revised cygport file. (It's Yaakov's
cygport file, modified to account for the patch change, with a BUILD_REQUIRES
added.)

No one has stepped forward, and Yaakov hasn't responded to say why he needed the
problematic portion of the patch. In view of the recent post on the cygwin list
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/cygwin/2020-August/245752.html
I think I should probably go ahead with an NMU. Any opinions? Jon, are you now
the de facto packaging czar who can authorize this?

As a practical matter, anyone who can change cygwin-pkg-maint could
upload anything, after jumping through sufficient hoops.
(In the interest of making life easier for those people, calm doesn't
usually require them to jump through those hoops (see [1]), allowing
them to:
- upload orphaned packages
- push to any packaging repository
[1] https://cygwin.com/pipermail/cygwin-apps/2020-February/039819.html)
> Jon, are you now the de facto packaging czar who can authorize this?
No, I don't think so.
My perspective is that, by virtue of having the necessary access and
being trusted to use it sensibly, you are already authorized.
Thanks for looking into this issue.
