trolling throught the code to disable unix sockets, i noticed that named pipes could be enabled with light patching.

Suggested fix:
step 1, setup configure script to note cygwin environment

we are going to work on this in a "low priority".

If anyone needs an update ping support@pdinc.us.

our internal issue # is 425

Jason, unfortunately, we cannot spend too much time on bugs in cygwin environment, as mainstream platforms get higher priority. But if you suggest a patch that fixes the problem, we could incorporate it into the source code.

yes, that was the plan.

we are still working on it.
