SO_REUSEADDR and windows enhanced socket security

looks like a problem with SO_REUSEADDR exists in CYGWIN for all windows
with support for "Enhanced socket security" (see
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms740621(VS.85).aspx

i'am trying to start multimple simultaneous UDP listeners for a
multicast packets on a single machine (reuse same address and port with
SO_REUSEADDR)
i've done such tests with cygwin 1.7 beta in windows vista, server 2008,
7 environment - all with no success, i.e. i can't start more than one
listener (i see an error message Address already in use in bind())!
in windows xp all works as expected!
i'll show some samples to demonstrate this:

===============================================================
with cygwin environment i can't run multiple listerers... bind error:
Address already in use!
(
building with cygwin:
gcc -o listener.cygwin.exe listener.c
gcc -o send.cygwin.exe send.c
)
but with mingw all works as expected!
(
building with mingw:
gcc -o listener.mingw.exe listener.c -lws2_32
gcc -o send.mingw.exe send.c -lws2_32
or in mingw environment:
gcc -mno-cygwin -o listener.mingw.exe listener.c -lws2_32
gcc -mno-cygwin -o send.mingw.exe send.c -lws2_32
)
