My approach this time is going to be any if or case or #ifdef that checks cygwin or mingw or msys or win32 etc. gets expunged. What I'm really wondering is are there any CPP flags or autotools settings that I need to _not_ expunge for purposes of signals, timing, networking, or getting the right headers?
