/proc/self was originally implemented by Chris January.  I just converted
it to being a symlink:

  - Implement /proc/self. (Chris January, Corinna Vinschen)

  - Implement /proc/<pid>/maps, /proc/<pid>/root, /proc/<pid>/exe,
    /proc/<pid>/cwd. (Corinna Vinschen)

  - Implement /proc/<pid>/fd/...  (Corinna Vinschen)

The SO_PEERCRED flag is missing:

  - Implement getpeereid() and getsockopt(..., SO_PEERCRED, ...).

That's not worth to mention since it's just getting aligned to newlib.
It's probably more interesting to talk about Eric Blake's strftime changes:

  - Add missing strftime flags. (Eric Blake)

> >>>Corinna mmap stuff

  - Rework page alignment handling in anonymus mmap. (Corinna Vinschen)

These are missing:

  - Fix thread synchronization in cygserver. (Corinna Vinschen)

  - Fix opening and renaming directories. (Corinna Vinschen)

  - Implement basename() and dirname(). (Corinna Vinschen)

  - Implement statvfs() and fstatvfs(). (Corinna Vinschen)
