Really? I had thought the second one was more cleaner. Actually I had to
figure out that when latex_path() is called for generating the argument
of [EMAIL PROTECTED] it is assumed that a trailing / is present, and the second
patch makes this clear not only for cygwin. On the other hand,
external_path() is almost a no-op for the other OSes, so I don't it is
such an overhead. So, what shall I use?

Funny, it was not there when I started working on the bug ;-)
