Since Elfyn has disappeared, and his packages appear to be up for grabs,
I'd like to take over maintainership of pdksh.  I've repackaged it using
method two, and fixed a few little things in the source package (full list
of changes below; also in the README).

Since this is a maintainership switch, please review and test the new
packages.  They are available at the URLs below:

<http://cs.nyu.edu/~pechtcha/cygwin/pdksh/setup.hint>
<http://cs.nyu.edu/~pechtcha/cygwin/pdksh/pdksh-5.2.14-3.tar.bz2>
<http://cs.nyu.edu/~pechtcha/cygwin/pdksh/pdksh-5.2.14-3-src.tar.bz2>

Changes since 5.2.14-2:

- Minimized the amount of struct option changes.
- Switched to the new FHS
- Fixed up the postinstall script
- Switched to method 2 and fixed the source package to fully recreate
  the distribution
  - in particular, changed the default binary name to "pdksh"
- Changed configure and autoconf files to detect Cygwin
- Updated the README

Thanks,
	Igor

I'll look at splint next at some point if nobody beats me to it.
