It is my understanding that the 'reason' for Cygwin is so one can
write Posix code that will run on a Windows platform.  By including
<winsock.h> any code written to use the Posix headers 
 <netdb.h>  <sys/socket.h>  <netinet/in.h>
will have numerous namespace collisions.

Perhaps it would be advantageous performance wise to use
the native Windows sockets rather then the Cygwin Posix sockets
but that IMHO rather defeats the purpose of Cygwin
