in thread system() and use POSIX on cygwin

perl -we'use POSIX; system "sleep 10000"'
works for me; does it for you? What version of cygwin? Did you build perl yourself or is this the cygwin binary? If built yourself, what's perl -V:config_args or what other changes did you make?

Can anyone else with cygwin on win98 try the above use posix/sleep?
