Cygnus GNU-Win32 is a complete C/C++ port to Win95, including masses of
UNIX functionality including BSD Sockets and DNS lookups! (interfaced to
the WinSock library).

There is also RSXNT and LCC Win32 which I haven't used yet. If you're a
Win95 programmer, I think you're best off with LCC. But if you're a UNIX
person who wants to use Win95 without any fuss (and still have your fork()
and select() and stuff) then Cygnus Win32 is the way to go.
