As I mentioned lightly in bug report #265 back on 4/11/98,
I've been attempting to move a small program which is working
fine on a BSD box over to NT. Under both RC3 and RC4 NT binaries,
I find that the fseek call on an opened file does not move
the pointer.  Simple on the fly script follows:

$fp = fopen("some_file", "r");
fseek($fp, 20);
echo "pointer is at " . ftell($fp) . "\n";
fclose($fp);

ftell always reports 0 for me, and subsequent fgetc or fgets
return data from the beginning of the file.

This is only on the NT port.

Fixed.  However, read the change file on problems that may occure with fseek under windows.
