Thanks, that looks pretty good. I see three files that
still need work, though:
* lib/poll.c mentions "Win9x" and "WinXP".
* lib/select.c is similar.
* ChangeLog entries needed.
Also, the old-ChangeLog-entry work has been done and
I don't see an obstacle to putting it in. That way
we don't have to worry about the "win"s creeping in
through the back door by people cloning old ChangeLog
entries. It's not a big deal, of course.
So how about if we apply your patch, combined with
the following further patch?
