I've checked the diff from the two repositories and found nothing suspicious
and so has Roland Mainz.

I'm responsible for the CYGWIN branches (and tags) and can confirm that it
is ok. In #freedesktop libv told that the VIA code can be easily compared
with the unichrome sources and for the SIS changes this will aply too.
With Roland having looked at the code too the Xprint stuff can be considered
safe too.

Thats 6 eyes having checked the diffs and I think it can be considered save
now.
