lynx 2.8.4-1 produces an "Alert: Unable to connect to remote host"
error.  wget (and other networking programs) work fine.
lynx -trace shows a problem in the call to confirm-ready connect().

LYGetHostByName: Resolved name to a hostent.
HTParseInet: Parsed address as port 80, IP address 128.100.1.32

TCP: Error 22 in `SOCKET_ERRNO' after call to confirm-ready connect() failed.
	Invalid argument
HTTP: Unable to connect to remote host for `http://www.cs.toronto.edu/' (errno = 22).

Some previous fixes have tried raising the timeout, but it seems
to me that the second connect on the non-blocking socket is
failing with EINVAL rather than EISCONN/EADDRINUSE/EALREADY.
Can one really rely on the semantics of a second connect on
a non-blocking socket?  Adding a test for EINVAL causes
it to work fine on a wide variety of web servers (high-speed LAN
and really distant slow Internet connections)  Trace now shows:

The set of configure options in Cygwin.README didn't work for me,
I had to make a few changes, also included in the patch below.

	Mark.
