Hi Jonathan, you're right, I havn't looked at the tests until now - just wanted to get the build up and running.
My only concerns so far are the few tests which require a Korn Shell as I think there's no ksh available for MinGW/Msys. But I promise to look at it. By the way, has anybody ever successfully run the tests on Windows with either MKS or Cygwin?
