I had read both of those. Neither of those, nor the referenced http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2007-04/msg00680.html or http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnu-utils/2007-04/msg00041.html mentions a fix for text/binary mode of files. So AFAICT that particular issue was quietly fixed. -Hugh -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
