Thom,

I have fixed this.  It was related to my changes to virtualize IO, and
the fact that Cygwin did not (as configure treats it) support the large
file API.  My fix is to ensure that the "large file API" is always built
even if it is essentially just a small file API that supports virtualization.

This means that Cygwin builds of GDAL still lack large file support,
though looking at cygwin man pages I think this too could be corrected
if necessary.

Best regards,
