These messages indicate that a certain function, e.g. regcomp()
or seteuid(), has not yet been implemented.

To fix them, download the gnu-win32 source, grep the sources to find
wheter the function is defined, implement it,
build a new cygwin.dll with your modified sources, test it,
and then if all goes well mail a patch to the gnu-win32 mailing list.

Simple really ;-)
