That shouldn't be too hard, but is there really no better solution? Why doesn't windows have fsync? I mean, it must have some system call that does exactly the same thing, but cygwin just doesn't map it? If there's no way to do it then I'll just add a test to fs_abilities, and display that warning you mentioned if the filesystem doesn't support fsync. -- Ben Escoto
