Please use the CVS repository we have on sourceware.cygnus.com, if you
can.  The snapshot that is there is for people who have no access to CVS,
but it makes life harder.

Ah yes.  Are you using Windows 95 or NT?

There has been a recent discussion about why these aren't in Cygwin's
library stubs and I'm not sure what the outcome was.  Anyone?
