Subject: [Bug] _POSIX_THREAD_SAFE_FUNCTIONS is defined, but it should not be?

Cygwin defines _POSIX_THREAD_SAFE_FUNCTIONS (in newlib/include/sys/features.h), but it does not provide the following 7 functions,
which are among those that this define is supposed to indicate the presence of:

flockfile
ftrylockfile
funlockfile
getgrgid_r
getgrnam_r
getlogin_r
readdir_r

(I noticed this, because APR assumes readdir_r is available if that define is defined. This seems to be a valid assumption,
according to SUSv3).

Max.
