It still doesn't work for me.  I get

  $ date | patch --dry-run
  patch: **** write error : Illegal seek

It works if I recompile from sources, though.  I compiled with

  $ ./configure --prefix=/usr && make && strip patch.exe && \
    make install 

I tried this on a recently installed Cygwin with only the Cygwin DLL
at the Test level.
