I wonder if this note from the man page is relevant:

"Only SCHED_FIFO, SCHED_OTHER and SCHED_RR are part of POSIX 1003.1b Process Scheduling. The other scheduling attributes 
may be ignored on some systems."

Of course is SCHED_IDLE was advertised as being available, this does seem to be a bug (I see it on my system as well).

I was able to use some commands under WSL (presumably more Linux-y), but none at all on Cygwin.

Cheers - Eliot
