The unexpected is upon us.  The attached patch:

   adds "lib/nanosleep.c" to "libcvs" compile
   adds "#include <winsock.h>" to "windows-NT/unistd.h"

which gets "nanosleep.c" to compile nicely and "libcvs" builds.

The picture turns ugly in the "libdiff" compile.  VC6 file "winnt.h"
blows up repeatedly in a very ugly way even though it compiled nicely
during "libcvs" build.

My current hypothesis is "libdiff" conditional compile macros are
breaking "winnt.h" conditional compile macros since "libdiff" tends
to include "unistd.h" late in the include chain.

I'd greatly appreciate a second opinion time permitting of course.

Agreed.
