It's still odd that cygcheck (which is an all-win32-native program)

I updated Cygwin just now.  The problem still exists.  Attached please find
the output of:

    2006-05-29 16:44:48 [EMAIL PROTECTED] /backup/p42800e
    $ cygcheck -s -v -r > cygcheck-20060529-1644.out

  No change.  Still the bizarre 1024 MB size report.
It's interesting to note that gzip works fine on small files
(cygcheck-20060529-1644.out, 16 kB), but barfs on big ones
(p42800e-exchange-20060527-230000.bkf, 505,973 MB):

  Well, that's what you would expect if it really did believe there was only
125Gb on the drive and 96% full.  I'm still suspicious of the driver though...


Me too.  My 200GB FireWire/USB2 external drive reports the proper size from
df using the same cygwin and coreutils version.
