Minor nit during compilation on cygwin:

make[3]: Entering directory `/home/eblake/coreutils-5.90/src'
if gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I..  -I.. -I. -I../lib -I../lib   -g2 -Wall -MT 
dd.o -MD -MP -MF ".deps/dd.Tpo" -c -o dd.o dd.c; \
then mv -f ".deps/dd.Tpo" ".deps/dd.Po"; else rm -f ".deps/dd.Tpo"; exit 1; fi
dd.c: In function `main':
dd.c:1661: warning: long unsigned int format, size_t arg (arg 5)

As I still haven't been able to convince my employer to sign a
copyright disclaimer, there are several patches that are essential
for operation on cygwin (such as a replacement to freopen that
accepts a NULL first argument) that are not in the official release,
but which will appear in the cygwin distribution in the next few
days once I make a cygwin distro of coreutils-5.90.

Thanks again for all your hard work in maintaining such a diverse,
yet essential, group of programs.
