Subject: [PATCH] Cygwin: fix mknod (64-bit only)

The current definition of mknod in syscalls.cc has a third argument of
type __dev16_t instead of dev_t.  Fix this on 64-bit Cygwin by
exporting mknod as an alias for mknod32.  (There is no problem on
32-bit because mknod is redirected to mknod32 via NEW_FUNCTIONS in
Makefile.am.)
