$ man 2 getpriority
...
SYNOPSIS

     int

...

$ man 2 setpriority
No entry for setpriority in section 2 of the manual

IMO this is very confusing IF you're not aware of it. I spent some time
finding out.

Then; "PRIO_PROCESS" mentioned later in the manpage doesn't seem to be
defined anywhere in the include files...

$ cd /usr/include/
$ grep PRIO_PROCESS *
$

Any pointers on where to find it - or how to bypass this when it gets used
in something you wish to build?
http://www.cygwin.com/ml/libc-hacker/2002-07/msg00013.html
seems to contain a diff on resources.h that adds (removes?) PRIO_PROCESS and
friends. Is this a "correct" change to apply?

Is there any Windows-"ism" affecting this on cygwin?
