We're using  Cygwin v1.0, on NT 4.0 SP4.  The problem:
bash and NT report two different modification times
for certain files.  

I have attached a file of this type in "bar.tz".
Please "tar zxpf bar.tz" to extract the file "addrdlg.cpp".
Then open a cmd.exe window and do: "dir addrdlg.cpp"; next
open a bash session and do "ls -l addrdlg.cpp".  There should be
a 1 hour difference.  Can anyone explain this; it seems like a
bug to me.

                       regards,
