I'm having a few problems with '_off64_t' not being recognised as a valid
type.  For example, in expressions such as:-

typedef  _off64_t  off_t;

which appears in /usr/include/cygwin/types.h

Is __CYGWIN_USE_BIG_TYPES__   only appropriate for 64-bit platforms?

In other words, should I #define it to 0 for a 32-bit platform?  If not, 
what do I need to #include in order to get a valid type for _off64_t ?

Hope that all makes sense.

Thanks,

John
