[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: {cygutils/cygutils-extra/cygutils-x11}-1.4.14-1

[Charles Wilson]

Cygutils is a collection of useful(?) tools for the cygwin
platform. This is a content update and feature enhancement.

This is a bugfix update. Hopefully it corrects the issue where
the postinstall script for xinit fails to create a Start Menu
shortcut and instead reports an error.

CHANGES (from cygutils-1.4.14-1)
================================
* cygdrop: Fix bug in obtaining security token information
  Patch from Corinna Vinschen, reported by Achim Gratz.
* mkshortcut: Fix longstanding memory allocation bug (Patch
  by Jon Turney; reported by...practically everyone).

TODO (call for patches):
================================
* Update (some?) utilities to handle unicode filenames, similar to
  IWAMURO Motonori's work on cygstart. Which utilities need this?
  mkshortcut and lpr, probably. Any others?
