Is this mkfifo support "vaporware" or is it something that 
could be checked into the cygdaemon-branch for testing? 
IIRC, nothing was said to indicate that this was actually 
being fixed.  All I remember is that Robert said he was too 
busy and Max said he might look at it.  However, this is the 
first peep regarding the issue I heard since then.  Clue me 
in if I'm wrong.

Cheers,
