I've implemented pthread_attr_setdetachstate, but I think it's bundled in with a patch that affects newlib so it's not available yet. See http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2001-03/msg01202.html for a clean workaround. Note: if your "minor" modificationsincluded defining macros or prototypes to replace system functions that aren't present, I'm not surprised you got these link errors.
