The source and binary for Cygwin version 1.3.2 won't be changing.  It's
as stable as its going to get.

<soapbox>
Before someone comments, there is no version of Cygwin which has "stable"
*functionality.*  There is no software product anywhere which has "stable" 
functionality.  "Stable" in terms of functionality is subjective.  That
which is adequate for one user is not for another (because of some bug
or lacking feature).  Folks looking for this kind of stability need to 
make this determination for themselves.
