Paul just submitted a patch to Gnulib that should fix it in a better way than 
what I suggested.

One problem was that I tried too hard to not use Gnulib
in Emacs, so I mistakenly avoided Gnulib's binary-io module.

There appears to be another issue, though -- a porting bug in Gnulib when
using the accept4 or pipe2 modules on Cygwin.  As Ken notes I
have tried to fix that problem in Gnulib, and propagated the
fix to Emacs while I was fixing the binary-io issue.

Please try trunk bzr 113348 to see whether these two changes
solve the problem.

Yes, that fixes it.  Thanks.

For the record, the problem I reported was due to the fact that Cygwin defines setmode as a macro that expands to _setmode. (So I was wrong when I said that setmode shouldn't be used on Cygwin.) But this definition is in <io.h>, which wasn't being #included. The problem showed up only in the 64-bit build because underscores are automatically prepended in the 32-bit build.

I'm closing the bug.

Ken
