There is an ioctl function, but it does not support all io control
codes.  You are restricted to the codes explicitely provided by
the cygwin.dll as there is no mechanism for translating between
the unix ioctl function and the win32 device control function.
You can mix win32 device controls with your cygwin code, though.
