Yes, but we can limit the damage to Solaris systems and to packages that use
the 'renameat' module. Like we do in lib/string.in.h for example.

Here's a proposed patch. I verified that it fixes the compilation error
mentioned above. It also mentions the Solaris problem in the documentation
(like we do for all portability problems, regardless whether we add a
workaround to gnulib).

I concur with the idea of this patch, but wonder if we need to tighten up lib/unistd.in.h to only include <stdio.h> on Cygwin, so as to avoid difficult analysis of whether the circular inclusions between our replacement <stdio.h> and <unistd.h> would negatively affect Solaris 10.
