inetutils packaging problem

Corinna,
In the inetutils -25 package which just showed up on ftp, your tarball
contains paths with ".\" prefixes. I suspect that your <source>
argument for tar was a "." instead of "*". Unfortunately setup doesn't
handle this case right for cygwin-style "bind" mounts and ends up
putting contents intended for /usr/{bin,lib} in C:\Cygwin\usr\{bin,lib}
instead of properly mapping /usr/{bin,lib} to C:\Cygwin\{bin,lib}.
Cheers,
Nicholas
P.S. - I'll take a look at what Gerrit's got so far, but it should
probably be ok.
