Thanks.  That helped.

msync() is failing with an EACCESS errno.  That translates to a windows
error: ERROR_LOCK_VIOLATION.  According to the ancient wisdom of google,
it is not uncommon for the FlushViewOfFile() function to return with
this error in some cases.

I added a retry to the function fhandler_disk_file::msync and tried
running rtorrent to download a debian iso (which seemed to be what you
were doing).  I could duplicate your problem before adding the retry but
I don't see it now.

The command I was using:

rtorrent http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/6.0.6/i386/bt-cd/debian-6.0.6-i386-CD-1.iso.torrent

I'm generating a snapshot now.  Please give it a try when it shows up.

And, Corinna, please if the change I made to your function is wrong or
you just don't like my variable names or comments please feel free to
expunge what I did with extreme prejudice.

I can't explain what in the newer snapshots would cause a difference
in behavior other than the fact that they were being built with a
newer compiler and a revamped configure script.
