Subject:	1.3.10: large files reported incorrectly (XP)

I have two large (16 GB and 18 GB) tar files on an NTFS partition in Windows
XP. When I list the files in cygwin, I get the following:

-rw-r--r--    1 Dmitri   Administ 478821376 Dec 18 22:15 unix1.tar
-rw-r--r--    1 Dmitri   Administ 18446744072062309376 Dec 18 22:34
unix2.tar

Under Windows command prompt (cmd), I get the following (correct) size:

12/18/2001  11:15 PM    17,658,690,560 unix1.tar
12/18/2001  11:34 PM    19,827,594,240 unix2.tar

Since cygwin doesn't report the sizes properly to the applications, it
breaks programs that could otherwise read the long files (i.e., GNU tar). I
am running
DLL version: 1.3.10, DLL epoch: 19, downloaded 5/16/2002.

Dmitri
