The problem described in the following post to this mailing list
earlier today sounds like it is caused by Cygwin's new treatment
of ctime:
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2005-03/msg00165.html
Since the CVS in question is a cygwin version, if this really is a
problem with ctime then it seems rather strange that cygwin's attempts
to behave more like POSIX would break a utility which relies on that
very behavior.
In any event, this isn't the postulated problem with a native windows
application.

Well, whatever it is, this "non problem" of yours makes it impossible to
build Mozilla with win32.
At least on FAT32 which I use. I mention as everyone is talking only
about NTFS.
