I wrote a simple substitute to use when it isn't available. The rest of the
code seems to work fine now (including _findfirst), after patching limits.h
a little bit to get around some pre-processor errors I got using it.

They are in io.h.


Thanks to everyone who answered! Seems to work just fine now (hopefully I
didn't break the CygWin compilation in the progress).
