Hi all

Does anyone know the status of these fixes ?

I saw an announcement for cygwin-3.2.0-0.1 that seemed to contain some
AF_UNIX-related fixes but I fail to find out where that distribution exists
(if it is supposed to be publicly accessible?), but I tried out the
2021-03-01 snapshot and perhaps they are similar ?

We bumped into some AF_UNIX-related issues when trying the 2021-03-01
-snapshot though. It might be some flaws in our code base but the same code
works in quite a few Linux-distros

We're more than willing to help out with testing this and/or trying to
narrow down any possible cygwin issues, but first we'd be glad if someone
could give us some kind of status report of this (so no one is doing any
unnecessary work)


Best regards,
Kristian

p.s.
   I tried to build the topic/af_unix -branch according to the FAQ, but
there was some issues
d.s.
