If you want to submit an assignment I'll be happy to look at the patch.
It is too big to be included without an assignment.  See:

http://cygwin.com/contrib.html

FYI, a quick scan seems to show that you've pretty much undone a lot of
what I've recently added for fifos so I don't expect to really be too
keen on applying the patch.  But, I don't want to spend too much time
inspecting a change which can't yet be applied.
