Oh... uh... well... I haven't had to open a file yet, per se.  Rather, I'm
been calling functions like PeekMessage, DispatchMessage,
IDirectDrawSurface_Blt, CreateDIBSection, etc.

I don't really know that those have Cygwin counterparts :)

All the lower level OS layer functions are passed through Cygwin; such as
opening files, select, sockets, etc.  I haven't touched that code yet.
