Yes, Robert and I have talked about that in the past. cygipc includes
them, but once cygdaemon is official I'll add them to cygutils.
Currently, cygutils includes a few IPC test programs (but not ipcrm or
ipcs) -- but those are only built if cygipc is installed, are are not
included in "official" cygutils package since cygipc isn't official.
If you can
1) give me the code -- see cygutils' HOW-TO-CONTRIBUTE document
2) also come up with an m4 macro for configure.in that I can use to
detect the presence of a cygserver-capable cygwin1.dll
Then I have no problems adding ipcs and ipcrm to cygutils BEFORE
cygserver goes gold.
