Yes, that's the way I would go. > Creating them would be done > like getopt_.h and others.

It makes the Makefile.am snippet a little more complicated than for the getopt_.h case, because you need a 'distclean-local' rule that does a 'rmdir sys'. But then it will work as smoothly as getopt_.h. > Perhaps this should be considered a mingw32 bug instead? It would be if the mingw people reach out for POSIX compliance. Do they? I was under the impression that Cygwin attempts to be POSIX compliant, but mingw was designed to be only a thin layer above MSVCRT.
