Summary0000255: file 5.40 compile error on MinGW/MSYS2
Descriptionfile 5.40 cannot be compiled on MinGW/MSYS2, due to ioctl / fnctl calls.

[*] fnctl calls
In funcs.c and magic.c, file calls fcntl with F_SETFD.

fcntl(fds[1], F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC);

MinGW does not support F_SETFD, thus fails to compile the code.

[*] ioctl calls
This issue had been already described in 0000163 (https://bugs.astron.com/view.php?id=163).

MinGW does not support ioctl call and produce compile error.

If the library is configured with `--disable-xzlib --disable-bzlib`, the code is excluded and does not block the build.

[*] Solution
I attached the diff file which excludes these code paths on MinGW build.
Tagsbuild, patch

Better use __MINGW32__?
