Because __CYGWIN_USE_BIG_TYPES__ has been defined ever since cygwin 1.5.0 several years ago; the only case where it is not defined is in a REALLY old app compiled against cygwin 1.3.x. And if you compile against a version of cygwin that old, then those bits are meaningless (in other words, for st_birthtim to be populated correctly, you have to use the newer cygwin compilation environment). I didn't make the patch, the cygwin developers did. - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
