Is this under cygwin 1.5 or 1.7? It makes a difference, because the two versions handle unlink() differently. By default, Windows doesn't allow deleting an open file (your code forgot to call fclose()). Cygwin can fake unlink() to make it appear that an open file has been deleted, but the file still exists until it is closed, and depending on where the file exists (which changes according to your cygwin version), the previous existing file can be in the way of recreating a new file of the same name. - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
