I submitted these patches, however, I still wonder if we really
need these patches. I cannot imagine the situation where handle
itself is needed rather than file descriptor.

However, following cygwin apps/dlls call _get_osfhandle():
ccmake.exe
cmake.exe
cpack.exe
ctest.exe
ddrescue.exe

And also, following cygwin apps/dlls call GetStdHandle():
ccmake.exe
cmake.exe
cpack.exe
ctest.exe
run.exe
cygusb0.dll
tk86.dll

in my installation.

Therefore, some of these apps/dlls may need these patches...
