If you need IPC functionality in Cygwin, refer to my earlier answer above.
Cygwin now supports this functionality through cygserver, which makes
cygipc obsolete. Read the README file.

If the code uses standard POSIX APIs, it should build and run on Cygwin.
If it doesn't, it's a Cygwin bug, and should be reported. The
"compatibility issues" you experienced on the Windows platform (using
Cygwin, I assume) will not be fixed or resolved unless they are reported.
