I'm preparing a patch, but who's the GNU maintainer?  I have the name
of the Debian maintainer (Ben Pfaff), and several email addresses,
of which hopefully some work.  DJ Delorie is the original author.
Will it also catch the other reserved filenames like

com1, com2, com3, con, lpt1, lpt2, lpt3, nul, and prn?

If the version is ready, could you post it to a cygwin

the standard distribution? Now it isn't.
