Hello

   I've tried to build latest Curl on Cygwin and encountered problem reason 
of which is very nicely summarized on the following page

http://www.greenend.org.uk/rjk/2001/06/poll.html

It shows that behaviour of cygwin poll when socket is closed (fourth column 
in table) is only compatible with one old version of linux. Though curl 
developer probably will make workaround for this, maybe fix it also in 
Cygwin to avoid further problems. I've attached the patch for it.
