Hi,

Here's a test case of strverscmp, from Dmitry Bogatov [1]

#include <string.h>
int main ()
{
  return strverscmp ("UNKNOWN", "2.2.0") <= 0;
}

It succeeds on glibc and musl libc 1.2.4, but fails on musl libc 1.2.3
and Cygwin 2.9.0 and 3.4.6.

The cause is apparently that Cygwin's strverscmp implementation was
borrowed from musl libc (Cygwin commit 59e09b6419cdf400be3c73b61ac9c22560dc397e)
at a time when musl libc's implementation was buggy. In musl libc, it is
meanwhile fixed, through
https://git.musl-libc.org/cgit/musl/commit/src/string/strverscmp.c?id=b50eb8c36c20f967bd0ed70c0b0db38a450886ba
