I'm not sure of all the details, but the program ends up getting linked

yes, it should be linked to other dlls. the catch is

yes, i mean the same. just don't mix up fseek() in your C compiler
with windows POSIX implementation

All replies to the list please.

Microsoft dropped both of those some time back (specifically the
subsystem mechanism, that is). Some parts of the
POSIX subsystem was implemented by MS (and other major players) only
to meet some bureaucratic reqs from DoD/UsGov, and i don't know any
