Subject: sys/socket.h problem

I think there is a minor problem in sys/socket.h

The 3rd parameter to accept() is normally declared to be of type socklen_t which
ultimately
ought to cast to some unsigned type rather than signed int.  As is, gcc
complains about the
sign changing and refused to build some socket code from a previously working
package.  Changing
the definition from int to uint works around my problem, but it makes we wonder
how all of the
network application included in cygwin were built.
