You already sent this message, why don't you stick to the original
thread?  Anyway, works for me.  This error message is never generated
explicitely by Cygwin, it's always a return code from a Winsock
function.  Whatever the reason is on your machine, it's not under the
control of Cygwin, apparently.

Did you check for http://cygwin.com/acronyms/#BLODA?  See this in your
cygcheck output:

Also, see this very old reply
http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2004-09/msg00444.html and the followup
http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2004-09/msg00458.html to this very old
thread you're referring to
>  <http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2004-09/msg00391.html>
As well as
http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2008-01/msg00342.html

If you really can't nail down the reason, we need a reproducible testcase,
preferrably in plain C source code.  The above one is not reproducible.
