I don't know how rtems is laid out - what I am proposing was
src/newlib/libc/include/sys/types.h includes <cygwin/types.h> (which
only overrides pthreads at the moment)
src/winsup/cygwin/include/cygwin/types.h contains the types that were
conflicting with rtems.
Where should I #include the rtems header from?
