Off the top of my head I don't see one inside the Cygwin DLL :(

The problem is that the package exchange at the start of an
accept/connect is required to be able to exchange credentials.  This in
turn is required for getpeereid and the SO_PEERCRED socket option which
is utilized at least by sshd.

Would it help to patch postfix for Cygwin to use a local-only AF_INET
socket at this point instead?
