I'm a bit reluctant as of the backward compatibility breakage. What if somebody uses shutdown in a script? You know, starting a backup in the evening and the last action of the script is to hibernate the machine or something like that... > There were no change to the shutdown CVS since then so here is that > patch, including a changelog. > > Note that I didn't change the programs version number in this patch.

Say, do you want to take over shutdown maintainership? It's an easy enough package to start with, it builds fine on 32 and 64 bit, and you get the cygport configuration "for free". What do you say?
