Subject: Problems with w32api includes
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.44.0205301856480.3077-100000@PentiumII.bedroom.gen.nz>

Recently I've been "porting" some Win32/Perl packages to cygwin/Perl and
have had to add __CYGWIN__ conditioned patches to overcome what I assume
are differences between native Win include files and those provided by w32api.

I've not got access to native Win include files, so can not work out what the 
extact problems are, but below are 5 examples of the changes I've had to make. 
I've included all the preceeding context as a aid.

The w32api maintainer is most likely to be in a better position to fix these 
problems than I. I think that items 4) and 5) maybe difficult as those string 
declarations are most likely in <strings.h> on Win32 systems.
