I'll see what I can come up with. It only fails on cygwin when directories are mounted as text mode, rather than binary mode; but to date I've always run the testsuite on a binary mode mount. I'll have to run the tests from a text mount point, and see what other problems it uncovers. A test should be a simple as verifying file sizes after copying two files, one with \n and the other with \r\n line endings. My biggest obstacle now is that I still don't have my employer's signature permitting me to contribute to FSF. Otherwise, I already have several other testsuite improvements lined up for contribution. - -- Life is short - so eat dessert first!
