Now it does. FWIW, I'm _heavily_ interested in your incorporating that patch into the developer sources. The reason is, I would be able to speed up porting OpenSSH-2.1.1p1 by means. I would like to set _fmode = O_TEXT and use O_BINARY where appropriate so I could remove each use of `fopen(..., "rt")'. But: Wouldn't the use of _fmode = O_TEXT additionally affect writes? I would still need the differing of read (O_TEXT) and write (don't care). Corinna -- Corinna Vinschen Cygwin Developer Cygnus Solutions, a Red Hat company
