You may need to use fstat and not lstat. A quick look at sys/types.h
shows there is no lstat. Also, you may need to do a:

#define    fstat   _fstat

to make it work with "fstat" as the MSCRT mangles the standard C
function names by placing "_" in front of this (which I do not fully
understand).

In my mingw sys/types.h

int     _fstat (int, struct _stat*);
int     _chmod (const char*, int);
int     _stat (const char*, struct _stat*);

As for getwd(), however, in io.h, this is defined:

char*   _getcwd (char*, int);

Could you use it instead?

#include <windows.h>
