I'm surprised. I checked that on two different 9X systems.
Could you try to figure out why this happens on your system?

I have used your patch as pattern but implemented my own code.

I tried that with an old and the current definition and
I compiled with -Wall. I couldn't reproduce that warning.

Interested? Of course. Unfortunately, if you are interested in
contributing code to Cygwin of significant size you will have to
sign over the copyright of your code changes to RedHat. Please
read the following text:

	http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin/contrib.html

I hope this will not discourage you. I have signed the assignment
form two years ago as a net contributor as well and I'm today still
alive and well ;-)
