Hi,
cygwin 1.5.9-1 on Windows XP Service Pack 1.
I need 64-bit versions of lseek() and friends. No prototype exists for
lseek64(). I've searched the archives on the list and many claim that
64-bit support is "automatic" and lseek() resolves at compile time to
lseek64(). This isn't happening fo
seek() not being able to seek past the 4Gb boundary.
Thanks.

The upgrade from 1.5 to 1.7 broke the starting of the services. I just
noticed that there are no services running when I do a "ps." That means
cron isn't working either.
What did the 1.7 install do to break the services that I had running and why
didn't it set them up do start at boot time?
