Last spring we tried to port our SIMPL project code to Cygwin but fell 
acropper of the known fifo issues in Cygwin.    We haven't been able to find 
expertise to contribute to a rewrite of the fifo functionality.    

I would like to nominate the cygwin fifo rewrite for a Google Summer of Code 
2012 project.   Hopefully the deadline hasn't passed.
