cygport source restructuring

Subject: cygport source restructuring

All those following cygport trunk,

I just made a major restructuring of cygport sources, the purpose of which is to ease maintainability and (RSN) documentation. There may also be a benefit through a reduction of fork&exec's, as those commands previously provided through scripts are now functions.

Just to be safe, please delete your $prefix/lib/cygport/bin directory before installing from trunk.

It's very possible that I broke something in the progress. If you find some breakage, please let me know by replying to this thread. In the meantime, if you really need a stable cygport, please stick with 0.9.9 (r7324) for now.

Yaakov
