There is no snapshot dated 03-10 on http://cygwin.com/snapshots/.

Unfortunately, there is no "hard limit" of 64MB.
On the machine where I first encountered the error, the limit seems to 
be about 16MB. On another machine, it's higher, about 200MB.
When the real limit is less than MAX_OVERLAPPED_WRITE_LEN, 
write_overlapped_fallback cannot succeed.
