No worries!

In case of moving Cygwin functionality to newlib, it's ok to keep the
whole thing on the newlib ML.  We did that already a couple of times
when RTEMS needed definitions already in Cygwin.

However, Mazen, please split your patch into a patchset with one
patch per affected system header.


Thanks,
