  If you build from mainline source, (i.e. the upcoming 1.7 cygwin) you'll 
already get:

2007-01-04  Brian Ford  <>
            Corinna Vinschen  <>

        * fhandler.h (PREFERRED_IO_BLKSIZE): Define as 64K.
        * fhandler.cc (fhandler_base::fstat): Set st_blksize to
        PREFERRED_IO_BLKSIZE.
        * fhandler_disk_file.cc (fhandler_base::fstat_helper): Ditto.
        * fhandler_mailslot.cc (fhandler_mailslot::fstat): Ditto.
        * fhandler_raw.cc (fhandler_dev_raw::fstat): Ditto.

  If you want to stick to 1.5 series, you could download a snapshot (source) 
and merge the diffs in yourself easily enough.


    cheers,
