posix functions

[stefan]

hi cygwin'ners:

when posting some software i noticed, that most of the POSIX functions
have been implemented within the cygwin1.dll. would not have expected...
the only "problem" where these two symbols:

setreuid()
setregid()

does anyone know if i am just using a cygwin1.dll too old, or never ever
someone used these ?

i got two further question on the socket-api:

1) is it neccessary to link againt -lwsock32 using cygwin1.dll ?
2) is it neccessary to call WSAStartup() (i am NOT speaking of mingw) ?

Thanks in advance.
