I just discovered that an environment variable OSTYPE is not longer exported by 
default to a subprocess under this version of Cygwin.  Why did this occur?  Was it 
intentional, or inadvertent?  I use this often, and although I can perform an export 
OSTYPE explicitly,  I now have lots of broken makefiles that won't work anymore.  Do 
you have any suggestions?  Otherwise, can this guy be fixed in the next minor release?
