It certainly isn't as robust as unix is, but "dir *.extension" should work
fine, although this may be "dir" doing the wildcarding, not the command
interpreter, I don't know.

I'm pretty sure I've done things like "cd C:\my_directory*" and it has
successfully switched to "C:\my_directory_name" without issues, but again,
this may be an edge case.

I'm certain that PowerShell has improved in this area, so that might be a
good start.  I was pretty frustrated that the msys wasn't compatible with
cmake out of the box (perhaps there is a way to workaround that, which
could also solve the problem?)

Unfortunately I was unable to catch up with you today... I got stuck on
pkg-config, had to download and install it manually (which I did) and never
got any further...

Thanks for the update.
