no, you finally answered the question. I didn't know they were non
existent until I checked the headers. Not being familiar with the
issue I thought they might exist if I set the flag.

I could have missed something and maybe I just needed to install something
new or dropped a package- they didn't have to be in a pthread header...
. So I guess then the question is what replaces this or if you have a link to
the issues here- why aren't these part of cygwin?

thanks.
