Release Notes: The package has been ported to Cygwin 1.5.19-4. Some messages are more user friendly now. Several small portability and documentation related fixes have been applied against bugs which likely manifested nowhere. The multi-threaded program "bigpipe" has been added for Unix98 platforms and Unix95 platforms with Posix Threads. It promotes asynchronicity among members of a pipeline. It helps in advancing through regular files on NFS-, SMB-, or USB-mounted devices. This benefits udp_copy2 directly because it requires very low latency on stdin/stdout. The version numbering has been sanitized.
