Hmm, I don't know what you mean by 'unconditional version'. ;-)

Anyway, the commit message of my patch needs some edits to reflect
my new 'theory' of the cause. I suppose I should try to track down
the changes to the cygwin headers to be more confident that I have
actually identified the correct cause. (Like Jonathan, I'm still a
bit surprised that _GNU_SOURCE doesn't trump _XOPEN_SOURCE, but I
can't say that it is a bug).

However, I suspect that the patch as is, modulo commit message edits,
should be sufficient to fix this up (at least for now).

ATB,
