Hi Henry,

	I have implemented mmap and get_osfhandle
in the latest cygwin32 sources (they seem to work).
The tricky thing about mmap is that according to
POSIX the mmap'ed areas must be copied across a
fork() - that complicates the implementation.
Also implemented are all the missing getXXbyYY
functions that were missing from the network
code in the 17.1 release.

Sorry, no ETA yet on the select fix or the next
release.

Hope that helps,

Jeremy.
