And so do things like open() if you look at certain manpages.
Not all manpages mention it, and not all libc need them.  That
doesn't mean you shouldn't include it however. :)

But gcc only complained about the missing declarations for the
functions, and I knew that all those functions had unistd.h in
common.

I wonder where the manpages for "system calls" are under cygwin.
Section two is completly missing.
