It depends what we mean with "old":
cygwin 1.5 is old, and I lost my test installation this summer:
One netbook was converted from XP to Linux, the other machine needs to be
re-installed and CYGWIN 1.5 is no longer available for download.

I can confirm that Ramsays patch works with CYGWIN 1.7 32 Bit.
