William, could you please verify that PATH_SEPARATOR_CHAR is set correctly in the patched Make that you built? It should be `:' in the Cygwin build, and the way this is supposed to happen is because config.h (produced from config.h.in by the configure script) should define PATH_SEPARATOR_CHAR to `:'. I presume that you still have the source tree you patched and compiled, so you should be able to look at config.h there. If config.h does NOT set PATH_SEPARATOR_CHAR to `:', then make.h will set it to `;' because HAVE_DOS_PATHS is defined. If that's what happens, then I can definitely understand why vpath is not working, since vpath.c uses PATH_SEPARATOR_CHAR to break the vpath list into individual directories, and checks each one of them for existence in the file system.
