This is looking close!

This doesn't really describe the entire change; it only describes the
differences from the last version of your patch.

> Tools/Scripts/webkitdirs.pm:1491

version 1.7.9

Why is this a FIXME? I don't think there's anything we need to "fix" here.

I didn't know about the version module! Seems less mysterious than using
"v1.7.10" strings.

I'd rename $minCygwinVersion to $firstCygwinVersionWithoutTTYVariable for
clarity.
