Hello Michael, you wrote:

Wouldn't it be cleaner and easier to code something like
#if defined __unix__ || defined __CYGWIN32__
...
#endif
and
#if defined _WIN32 && !defined __CYGWIN32__
...
#endif
around parts of your program that should behave like on unix under
cygwin? IMHO that wouldn't be more effort than solving your current
problem and all the others that will arise if something in the headers
or the cygwin tools gets changed.
