bpo-31878: Fix _socket module compilation on Cygwin by embray · Pull Request #4137 · python/cpython
Conversation
In Cygwin, as on OSX, ioctl() is declared in sys/ioctl.h, and so needs this include. This is necessary for the _socket module to compile successfully on that platform.
I think it is better to remove PYCC_VACPP in a separate commit.

I agree, it's distributing to have both changes in the same PR.
Moreover, for the Cygwin PR, please explain your change in the commit message. Explain that your change adds the ioctl.h include on Cygwin.
It is in a separate commit, but the same PR. I will make a separate PR--it just seemed like very minor code cleanup.
Rebased: Dropped the PYCC_VACPP cleanup from this PR; the commit message already says I think all that needs to be said.

GH-4145 is a backport of this pull request to the 3.6 branch.
Wait. For me, Cygwin means supporting a new platform. It was never supported officially. I'm against backporting such change.

Please CC-me for your new "cleanup" PR, I like it ;-)
