Every operating system also has ways to circumvent that, though. And Windows XP is no exception. I think Cygwin doesn't do it because it's simply unjustified: modern Windows systems have enough features that allow to implement a Posix layer above them without the need to bypass them. But we are wandering off the topic, I think.
