[PATCH 64bit] ssize_t

[Yaakov (Cygwin/X)]

I just discovered an issue resulting from this commit:

2002-06-27  Jeff Johnston  <jjohnstn@...>

        * libc/include/sys/_types.h: Define _ssize_t as int if int is
        32-bits, otherwise define it as long.

On x86_64-cygwin (as on Linux), int is still 32 bits, but size_t is a
64bit unsigned long and ssize_t should be as large but signed.
Possible patch for newlib attached; corresponding patches for
cygwin-64bit-branch on cygwin-patches@.
