Compatibility with what? What's the problem with the status quo? I wanted to include Hany's Dos2Unix tool (hd2u) into msysGit. h2du depends on libpopt, and either of the two requires the uid_t type, I do not recall which. And while adding the missing uid_t, I felt it would be right to actually use uid_t / pid_t in the function prototypes. -- Sebastian Schuberth
