Also noticed that "ping" package is missing from 64-bit. Gosh - I use both of these on occasion.  I'm now feeling I may have made a mistake in upgrading to 64-bit. My questions: 1)  Is there some way to install and run the 32-bit versions of the packages that are missing from the 64-bit distro? 2) Are the missing packages "Just around the corner" 3) Should I just pack it in, nuke my 64-bit setup and revert to 32-bits?  I had been hoping that the 64-bit version would fix some of the limitations of running 32-bit shell and apps on a 64-bit Win8 platform (e.g. the System32 and SysWOW64 craziness, and confusing names), but the current Cygwin 64-bit rough edges are making me uneasy.  Am I missing something?
