cygwin 1.3.10 fork+sockets+shmat/mmap=recreate_mmaps_after_fork_failed

[Michael Potter <pottmi at lidp dot com>]

A sample program is below which demonstrats bug when fork, sockets
and (shmat or mmap) are used together.  The result is
recreate_mmaps_after_fork_failed error, which has been reported
under different circumstances.

The following is a sample run of that program:

Note: The program does an accept(), so you must telnet to port 10210
to allow the program to continue.

Any help is appreciated.

Thank you for providing/working on a great piece of software.
