cygwin_attach_handle_to_fd and SOCKET.

["Christophe LEITIENNE" <c dot leitienne at remove dot this dot bgpartners dot fr>]

I'm using cygwin_attach_handle_to_fd to attach a windows SOCKET to a cygwin
file descriptor.

I do it this way:
fd = cygwin_attach_handle_to_fd("/dev/tcp", -1, WindowsSocketHandle, TRUE,
GENERIC_READ|GENERIC_WRITE);

This call works well under Cygwin 1.3.13, and calls to recv(fd,...) or
send(fd,...) also works correctly.

Under the last version of Cygwin (1.5.11), cygwin_attach_handle_to_fd still
works, but calls to recv() fails with errno 108 (ENOTSOCK - Socket operation
on non-socket).

I guess the "name" argument I provide to cygwin_attach_handle_to_fd
("/dev/tcp") is wrong under 1.5.11.
I had a look at the sources (especially dtable.cc), but did not found any
clues.
Does anyone knows what "name" argument I should use ?

Thanks.
