Corinna has just patched download.cc to avoid the problem.  The real
problem is that __MSVCRT__ needs to be defined in -mno-cygwin is used. 
This would fix the problem.

I know that I had this in my patch to Chris.  He must have missed it
when he created the distribution.  If you fall back to using
GCC-2.95.2-6 then the problem isn't present as the correct structure
sizes are used for CRTDLL.  With MSVCRT the __MSVCRT__ macro changes the
structure size.

Earnie.
