Just a random thought: as a long time Linux from Scratch user, I'm
intrigued about the possibility of building a Cygwin "distribution"
from scratch.  Typically when I build an LFS install, I take a lot of
time building each package to make sure every possible feature is
available (for example, currently fiddling with Apache2 under Cygwin,
and ldap modules don't compile unless apr-util is built with ldap
support, which the default package isn't).  Is such a thing possible?
