Do we already have -src packages that adhere to this new convention? If it's not too late, it would be very nice if they could be distinguished from the old, prepatched -src packages, by using a different naming convention, ie foo-1.1-cyg.tar.gz? > > mv foo-1.1 foo-1.1-1 > > Not sure why you're bothering to rename this.
