Btw., the preceeding paragraph is even more true after fixing Mingw-w64's
winsock headers because in this case values like FIONREAD, FIOASYNC,
etc (*) will *collide* when using WinSock and Cygwin headers due to their
different values.

So, again, to be very clear:  Never mix Cygwin's POSIX socket functions
and Cygwin's POSIX socket headers with Winsock headers and functions.
In theory only Cygwin should be a consumer of the Winsock headers and
functions in a Cygwin environment.

Corinna

(*) FIONBIO is an exception beacuse its value in the Cygwin headers
    is hardcoded to 0x8004667e for historical reasons.
