Subject:	1.3.13-2 & 1.3.14-1 problem on read() from dgram socket

Hello, everyone.

I'd like to report bug of latest release of cygwin.

I found that read() from dgram socket fails on cygwin 1.3.13-2 or 1.3.14-1
under Windows 2000 or Windows XP.

Cygwin 1.3.12-4 does not have this problem.
Also, this problem does not apear under Windows 98.

Due to this problem, inetd of inetutils-1.3.2-19 get into full load
after receiving dgram "discard" request on udp port 9.
Build-in "discard" daemon of inetd  calls read() instead of recv()
to sink data from dgram socket in discard_dg(), but the read() fails.
Then select() returns repeatedly every time after read() fails.

I hope this problem will be resolved in next release.

Thank you.
