Thank you for making this report. Unfortunately in the case of Cygwin we can't do very much. The utilities can only support what the underling operating system supports. And in that case it is limited by what MS provides. For MS-Windows problems and Cygwin problems it would be most appreciated if you would make your reports to Cygwin directly. They are the experts in that area. http://cygwin.com/ > If I use mkfifo of the package fileutils-4.1-2.tar.bz2, I have the = > following error: > > The file MKFIFO.EXE is bound(connected) to a missing export cygwin1.dll = > _ getreent. fileutils is the old name. Please switch to the newer coreutils.
