Since wintar-scsi is a proprietary application, I can't look what it's
doing differently. AFAIK, wintar-scsi uses low level calls on the SCSI
level. Cygwin uses just standard Win32 function calls. If these fail
even though opening the device worked, then I'm stuck.
Could you please build this small testcase and run it while a tape in
in the drive?
