Then he must have updated it with Kano's driver because no non-Bitmain driver for the chip existed before that.

Interesting.
I had a bit of a look, and found a quote from kano stating what you described before:
That other 'w' version removes all the git code ownership information, adds a security risk (extranonce) and they release a windows binary with who knows what in it.
If they can't even use git properly, I'd worry about using any code they added to cgminer ...
If you want to use a version other than mine, for the pre CompacF Gekko miners, you must use VH's version.
He wrote the original Gekko driver.
I pulled all VH's Gekko code to my master cgminer git, updated it and added the CompacF to it.

And then went on to check the github page of VH, and found that the latest commit was done in December 2018: https://github.com/vthoang/cgminer
Since the Compac F was released last year or so, there's no way it can be included in that repo. Unless I'm missing something...
As far as I know, the only maintained repo containing support for the Compac F is the one from kano: https://github.com/kanoi/cgminer
