Hi Corinna,
You recently added support for the O_PATH flag, but it doesn't work for FIFOs.
(I just noticed this because of a failing emacs test.) Was this deliberate or
just an oversight? If it was the latter, I'll be glad to add O_PATH support for
FIFOs. I assume this should be done both on master and on the cygwin-3_0-branch.

No answer required. It looks like this is going to be pretty trivial. I'll
just send the patches.

For the record, the problem is that opening a FIFO with O_PATH hangs. I've just
sent a patch for the cygwin-3_0-branch. I'll hold off on the master branch
until we finish dealing with that one.
