Thanks to suggestions and patches from Malcolm Blue, CygIPC has been
updated to version 1.08 and sports improved message queue handling. 
Also includes IPC documentation from the Linux Documentation Project.

CygIPC is a library that provides SysV-style Interprocess Communication
(IPC) routines as well as a background daemon (ipc-daemon.exe) to manage
it all.  It provides message queues, shared memory, and semaphore -based
communication.  It is not a *complete* implementation, but it's
generally good enough for most applications.  If something you need
isn't yet implemented, send me a patch, like Malcolm did! <g>

The following functions are provided by the library:
   msgget      semget      shmget
   msgrcv      semop       shmat
   msgsnd      semctl      shmdt
   msgctl                  shmctl
