I have just taken over from Reini Urban as clisp maintainer for Cygwin.
I can build the tip of the Mercurial repository on both 32-bit and
64-bit Cygwin [*], but several patches are required (not all of which
are Cygwin-specific). I would like to get these patches applied. How
should I proceed? Should I just send patches to this list? Or do you
prefer bug reports with patches attached?
BTW, I just took a quick glance at the bug tracker and saw that some of
my patches fix bugs that have been previously reported. I didn't do a
thorough search.

[*] The 64-bit build is somewhat limited at the moment for several reasons:
1. ffcall has not been ported to 64-bit Cygwin.
2. libsigsegv has not been ported to 64-bit Cygwin.
3. I ran into a gcc problem when trying to build several of the modules
(including regexp):
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=64939
On the other hand, one Cygwin user reported that he had successfully
built Macsyma using my 64-bit build, so apparently it's of some use in
spite of the limitations.
