That looks like a reasonable fix. Did you trace through all of the callers of semaphore::_getvalue to make sure that some of them aren't relying on the old behavior?
I did not look for other callers.I just wrote a very simple test for sem_getvalue() and copied different cygwin1.dll versions to my test-application.
