Hello,

This error seems to be linked to UWin Master Service startup.
You can use UWin.

UWin is the only product which provide a complete Unix layer (file system
representation, processus creation, ...) on Windows.

It's a great product!

The only point I notice during portage of code is the implementation of :
- mmap(), stat(), ... which provide a default "large file 64 bits"
(-D_NO_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE=1)
- time fonction which provide a default 64 bits (-D_USE_32BIT_TIME_T=1)
- select() which mainly follow Windows implementation.

Regards,

Yves
