Cygwin doesn't seem to export a wrapper for closesocket().  How can I
access that function?  Can I call it from a signal handler function?
I tried calling close() on the socket that recv() is reading, from a
signal handler, but that doesn't seem to unblock the recv().
Actually, I get a STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION when I try that.
