I need more comments anyway. Just testing the water before I go all
out adding them. I put "Cygwin internal" in because that is what I saw
in net.cc, and I thought it might be some sort of standard.

Will do. It'll take maybe a week to arrive from New Zealand. In the
meantime I have to tidy up the submission a bit.
I've tried to compile the source for Cygwin 1.3.15-2 prior to putting
netdb.cc in, but I am having problems with fhandler_serial.cc. With
the rewrite of fhandler_serial::ioctl, and the inclusion of
ddk/ntddser.h, I can no longer compile. I have copy of the W2K DDK,
and tried pointing the compiler at the include directory there, but
unsurprisingly this doesn't work. Is there a Cygwin version of the DDK
headers that I should use, in the same way that w32api provides a
Cygwin version of the Win32 SDK headers?
