As Cygwin is a rolling release system, old package versions are not supported, 
so you will have to use the Cygwin Time Machine

	http://www.crouchingtigerhiddenfruitbat.org/Cygwin/timemachine.html

to find and install the legacy package versions required to support legacy PS2 
SDK on legacy systems.
