For clarification, I am not referring to a function, I am referring to the struct stat64
which is needed as an argument to _fstat64_r or _stat64 for that matter.  There is no struct
stat64 or struct _stat64 defined externally under Cygwin.  The compiler fails because
it does not know the size of the structure.  Under linux, the type is defined and this is not a
problem.
