Hello all, 

I made some minor compatibility fixes in Proftpd, 
now it compiles and runs under Cygwin. 
I proposed the patch to proftpd developers about a week ago, 
but the bug status hasn't changed since then 
(Bug ID 1569 at bugs.proftpd.org).
Actually, the whole CVS repository hasn't changed either.

See the patch attached, it applies to the current CVS version.

I am also working on README.cygwin, describing the major 
user names/permissions issues. 

I was not intending to buld a cygwin package, because 
many Proftpd features are configured at compile time.

One of the major problems that I encountered, and which 
I successfully avoided, is that a service running under SYSTEM
user, can launch a child process, which becomes unkillable.
So, if someone knows how to kill such a process, please let me know, 
I'll include it also to README.

Enjoy, 
Stanislav
