I think Cygwin does have mkfifo, but using Cygwin is probably not the
typical way of using Octave on a Windows system now.

Or do you mean that we could maybe borrow the mkfifo code from Cygwin?
I don't see an implementation of mkfifo in gnulib, and it is
apparently missing from MinGW, so my guess is it is nontrivial to make
it work on Windows.  But maybe someone else knows more?
