Actually, I'm not sure which style is the correct fix.
I think I would favor "__declspec(dllimport) h_errno"
(nowhere else in Cygwin does exported data use #define
with an __imp_ prefix, although mingw does). But, I've seen some
code (in perl) which does a "#if !defined(h_errno)", so maybe
there are good portability reasons for a #define. I'll defer
to someone who knows.
Also, something recently changed in the development snapshots
with respect to h_errno. Because, I just noticed this problem
when I updated my snapshot this week.
