[SAC-HELP] I can't install SAC-101.3b on cygwin in windows 7

[Arthur Snoke]

Andy tells me that one does not need a separate Cygwin source tarball with 
the newest version of Cygwin.

Question; Is there any reason NOT to upgrade to the newest Cygwin?  If 
not, there is no need to have a separate Cygwin source tarball.
