No; I'm pretty sure it's already been fixed in CVS actually. I just think that, in general, it's not guaranteed by make (or any other cygwin tool) that you'll be able to use full DOS-style pathnames. However, at least for make, unless there's some serious incompatibility that makes it very difficult (or unless whomever maintains the Cygwin port declines to make the change, which is not the case here) we'll make an effort to be compatible. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
