sys/types.h fails to compile under g++

[Larry Hall]

WFM with 'g++ -o sock sock.cpp'.  

Your gcc/g++ is out of date, though I doubt that's the main problem.  See 
<http://cygwin.com/problems.html> if you need to post again for help on
this issue.

Thanks,

Larry

If anybody knows the compilation and link options I need it would help me out completely. I am assuming that the standard cygwin release provides all the libs I need to do this type of unix coding on my humble XP box. If I've missed anything, please let me know. I am using GCC v3.2 on an XP machine with the latest cygwin installation.
