I found ftruncate() on MinGW, so I changed to use that (with help of fileno() to avoid reopening the file this got much cleaner too). For non-MinGW Windows, it seems like _chsize_s is an equivalent (forget about SetEndOfFile() which acts on Windows file handles). Since I can not test that variant, and MinGW works fine, I am not including it. > >> >>> Check for availability of getpagesize() >>> Replace usleep() and sleep() by milli_sleep() macro >> >> Is HAVE_WINDOWS_H really the preferred way to check for windows?

Since we are using HAVE_WINDOWS_H it implies auto-tools is being used, so it could seem like checking for Sleep() would be the proper way. However that does not work when cross-compiling on MinGW. Similar to the getpagesize() issue this might be a bug in auto-tools or I don't know how to use it properly. >> The squashing of the bug fix in the previous change is the only thing >> that would block me from pulling this in.
