>Groupsocks(-1;239.255.42.42,1234,7) failed to join group :

What is happening here is that (for some unknown reason) the call to 
"setupDatagramSocket()" (see "groupsock/GroupsockHelper.cpp") is failing, 
and is returning a 'socket number' of -1 (indicating an error).

It seems that something about the use of "cygwin" is causing 
"setupDatagramSocket()" to fail.  Because I can't reproduce the problem 
here, could you please debug the execution of "setupDatagramSocket()" 
(e.g., using print statements), and let us know exactly which part of this 
routine is failing (and returning -1)?
