Subject: dd disregards no-rewind
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

The dd command is rewinding after a tape to disk copy, even though the
no-rewind mount point is specified:

dd if=/dev/ntape0 of=file1 bs=65500

This happens under Win2k using the latest 1.3.5 downloaded yesterday.
It also occurs in 1.3.4 on another machine, also running Win2k.

This has worked properly for me in the past, but I'm not sure which
version, maybe 1.3.2 or 1.3.3.  Can someone tell me which package
contains dd, so I can try earlier version without reinstalling the
entire cygwin.
