My suggestion is that new versions of cmake depend on cygwin 1.5.  Over the
past month there have been a huge number of packages upgraded to new
versions simply to work with 1.5.  Seems to be the way to go.

put something in /usr/local/bin, but I cannot repeat it now.  Must have done
a cygwin build/install and then forgotten about it.
