Patches posted here will likely be lost; for possible inclusion in the 
distribution, they need to go to the patch tracker:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?atid=302435&group_id=2435&func=browse

You should also provide a ChangeLog entry, in the format specified by 
the GNU Coding Standards:
http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Change-Logs.html

Also, it would be advisable to test your patch before submission, (and 
better still, attach a minimal test case with the patch).

We also need to consider how we document such deviations from standard 
MSVCRT behaviour.  A manpage for the augmented function, included in 
the patch, would be nice; at the very least, a page on MinGWiki, where 
we collectively document *all* such enhancements is needed, (in 
addition to any provided manpages), IMO.

Regards,
Keith.
