WINE on Cygwin

[Informações]

    Hey All,

    I'm seriously interested in making the WINESERVER work under Cygwin and 
have been invistigating some of the issues related to this matter. One of 
the WineHQ developers informed me that:

    "... the last time someone tried, the main obstacle was that cygwin 
doesn't support sendmsg() to send file descriptors across processes, which 
means that the wine server cannot work. This in turn means you cannot run 
kernel32 or user32. "

    Some further invistigation shows that this is an old issue that has 
arisen several times during the course of the Cygwin history. Does anybody 
has any clue on the status of this issue ? Could anyone provide me some 
useful information that I could take as an starting point for this 
implementation ?

    Any other comments regarding the bulding/execution of the Wine under 
Cygwin would be very welcome.

    FLu-X
