Summary: HAVE_FDATASYNC incorrectly set for 2.3.4 under cygwin

Initial Comment:
Building 2.3.4 from the tarball, 
#define HAVE_FDATASYNC 1
appears in the pyconfig.h file, and
the build of 'posixmodule' fails with
undefined symbol _fdatasync

Workaround is to delete the line
and proceed, of course, but I've
never seen this before when building
under cygwin.

There is no 'fdatasync' mentioned
in any /usr/include/*.h or /usr/local/include/*.h

The cygwin installation is kind of a mongrel
(4 or 5 upgrades since install, some selective)
This is the ID string from the built python:

Python 2.3.4 (#2, Jul  4 2004, 22:10:22)
[GCC 3.3.1 (cygming special)] on cygwin

Let me know of any details of the cygwin install
which might be useful.
