Hi Corinna,

Without knowing too much about the specifics of the issue, I will attempt
guess that the missing functionality probably has to do with the replication
of file descriptors passed through unix sockets. Is this your assessment as
well? If this is the case, then would be expect that new functionality would
have to be implemented specifically for replicating all the relevant fd
structures across process boundaries? If these assumptions are correct, can
you help point to the relevant codebase areas that need enhancement? I am
probably jumping on the gun here since I am not a registered contributor for
cygwin, but hey, I will gladly follow any due process to become one as
needed!

--Stefanos.

Let me rephrase: It's on the TODO list for a long time. I only have
some vague ideas how to do it, but it's not something you could call
a plan.
