Larry,

Ugghh... Ok, thanks. I can download source and look at it. Do I have it
already with the automated default installation procedure?

Is there an relationship between
http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007908799/xns/recv.html and the cygwin
implementation of (for example) recv?

I thought the purpose of cygwin was to minimize source code changes when
porting from unix. Isn't there some documented flavor of unix that cygwin is
based on?

     Siegfried

You'll want to look at the Cygwin source.
