Alternatively, you can try to implement a $(cygpath ...) function in make

will not have to invoke a separate process to convert the paths that it
(as a program linked to cygwin1.dll) already knows how to do.
I'd like to point out that such a patch would be all of about five lines
of "code"... (And for the record, I've written both new make functions
AND my own version of cygpath, so I know what I'm talking about.)
Except note you would almost certainly want $(cygpathu) and $(cygpathw).
Because no one seems to have gotten the point yet,

be one of the people not having problems, so if all these other posters
would kindly put their patches where their mouths are, then maybe
something would be accomplished.
