How awkward - here you are complaining about spam, then you post
plain-text email in your reply.  http://cygwin.com/acronyms/#PCYMTNQREAIYR

Actually, as I explained in this post:
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2007-11/msg00201.html

Basically, cygwin does not promise you a C89 environment, and won't unless
someone writes the patches to do so.
