Hi, Gurus,
I found an PATH environment variable related issue with gmake.
In Windows/Dos, the env var is case insensitive. On my system, the command
"set path" give the following result.

One PATH and one Path. My question is why two paths ? What is the
difference betwen the normal shell
and the one in which gmake runs commands ?
Actually, when I use some perl script inside Makefiles, they can only
change one the path variables
by setting $ENV{'Path'} or $ENV{'PATH'}, which make Path and PATH
different and this will
prevent locating the correct executable.
Thank you,
