Or is this RPM just a cross install tool just used for cygwin on linux boxen? I tried to build RPM many long moons ago when cygwin was young, but other than very simple src packages, most everything failed to configure or build. Have these issues been worked out? I dropped it off my radar after too many sleepless nights...
