This surprises me. Cygwin does have 'pipe()', doesn't it? At a first
glance, Octave just checks with AC_CHECK_FUNCS([pipe]) to decide if
pipe is supported, should this not succeed on cygwin?

From Jaroslavs comments to parcellfun/pararrayfun I wouldn't have
deduced any problems in using them on Windows at all, they only might
not work very efficient there.
