Apparently, if I set PERL5LIB to a path with the same root as the
install drive, then the docs database is built consistently and then
works with the cross-filesystem version of PERL5LIB or the
same-filesystem one. E.g.,
PERL5LIB=/cygdrive/e/chm/local/lib/perl5
make docs database
pdldoc slice works
PERL5LIB=/home/chm/local/lib/perl5
pdldoc slice works now too!
It appears the problem is in the abs2rel conversion. Unfortunately, I
don't have more PDL devel time today.
Cheers,
Chris
