I've found a *critical* issue with this patch.

cygrunsrv now no longer appears in setup.ini, so the package doesn't
actually get installed by anything.  Also, the packages don't actually
appear on http://cygwin.com/packages/x86/cygrunsrv/

This effectively breaks every cygwin service.

FWIW, I was able to download it from kernel.org's mirror just fine this morning:

ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/sourceware/cygwin/x86/release/cygrunsrv/

Yea.  The files are present on my mirror as well, but the package
isn't listed in setup.ini.

I ended up reverting our setup.ini to the version from the 29th
(thanks to cygwin time machine), and everything is working again.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: cygrunsrv-1.50-1

[Corinna Vinschen]

I've updated the cygrunsrv package to 1.50-1.

Changes and fixes:

* Fixes the potential problem with service processes which don't have
  /bin in their path and use the fork() system call, reported in
  http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2013-10/msg00413.html.

* If you call -L with insufficient permissions, the annoying warning messages

    cygrunsrv: warning: OpenService failed for '<foo>': Win32 error 5
    Access is denied.

  will not show up anymore.  It will still show up if another error than
  "access is denied" occurs.

* Improved -L and -Q output.  If a service is started by a cygrunsrv
  installed in another location than the cygrunsrv instance used to
  print the -L or -Q information, it marks the service as foreign
  service.  Examples:

  -L without -V just encloses "foreign" services in parens:

    $ cygrunsrv -L
    sshd
    (foo)

  -LV or -Q add an "Installation path" entry to the output:

    $ cygrunsrv -LV
    Service             : sshd
    Display name        : CYGWIN sshd
    [...]

    Service             : foo                 (Installation path: C:\bar)
    Display name        : CYGWIN sshd
    [...]


Have fun,
Corinna
