Hmmm...I suppose this all means that I missed an open() or fopen() call somewhere in gdbm or cvs, and it needs to have the appropriate "O_BINARY" or "b" added. However, I'm nervous about making that sort of change even if I DO find one -- wouldn't that mess up folks who are happily using cvs with local working dirs on textmode mounts? Or is that a non-existent class of users, and everybody using cvs is also using binary mode mounts? Can anybody who uses text mode local mounts birddog this for me? --Chuck gdbm/cvs cygwin maintainer -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
