OUCH! I was using Cygwin echo, unknown to me (echo is not a executable in
Windows, so the windows shell found the Cygwin echo, later in the path, and did
not do the built in Windows echo).
So now I see this:
Cygwin echo from Cygwin shell:
$echo \\\foobar
\foobar
>From windows shell:
C:\Temp>c:\tools\cygwin\bin\echo \\\foobar
\\\foobar
And from within GNU make
SHELL=cmd.exe
foobar:
echo \\\foobar
C:\Temp>make foobar
echo \\\foobar
\\foobar
I can kind of understand the first two behaviours: the first, Cygwin echo
within a Unix-like shell, tries to behave like Unix. Second, within Windows,
tries to be compatible with windows echo.
But third, I still don't understand.
