unlink(2) or fopen(3) failing under cygwin

[Blair P . Houghton]

I forget.  What's the command to dump the system config?

Here's what `uname -a' says:

    CYGWIN_NT-5.1 eMachine64-3000 1.5.7(0.109/3/2) \ 
2004-01-30 19:32 i686 unknown unknown Cygwin

unlink(2) seems to be causing a subsequent fopen(3)
to fail.  Originally, it was the unlink call that
failed, but putting it in a loop

    while(!unlink(...))

made it work.

Does anyone know of any reason an fopen on the
just-unlinked file would fail under Cygwin?
