Perhaps you may recall a similar request a few months ago, where someone was going to "fix" the cygwin headers. At that time, I said that I didn't want to get into a discussion of the best way to deal with headers and I mentioned that I wasn't going to have headers include other headers at that time. That hasn't changed. Robert, if you're looking for things to do, why not finish the sysv ipc cygserver work? I think that would be much more bang for the buck than messing with headers. cgf
