enums.h, and the source where the types are used of course.

enum {
    FD_NONE,
    FD_LOG,
    FD_FILE,
    FD_SOCKET,
    FD_PIPE,
    FD_UNKNOWN
};

So no, not quite. Type 3 is any type of socket, not only listening
sockets.

Ok. I'll create a SourceForge "cygwin" branch for you until we are ready
to accept this into the main release. If you create yourself a
SourceForge account ans send the accound name or it to me then you will
be given write access there.

I think all he did is what you say: Splitted the filedescriptors into
file and socket filedescriptors, and added code for installing Squid as
a NT service.
