I dont know advanced debugging. I just know how to write programs in C. I 
dont know how to write wrapper functions etc...or any Windows WINSOCK API 
programming.

But the question of anyone writing a program client that binds to the 
broadcast address should be one with a answer (common scenario, must have 
been done ?)

What about actually debugging the problem?  Or did you try using
WinSock functions directly instead of the Cygwin wrapper functions
