Given two +1 votes (your own and Christian Franke's) i'll go ahead and remove ascii from cygutils as well. -- Chuck

Great. Meanwhile, I need to fix this bug in gnulib first; 'realpath ///' must print '/'; cygutils does, but coreutils currently prints '//' (as it also does for 'readlink -m ///' which shares the same gnulib function), so it will be another day or two before I have coreutils 8.15 ready to post. I should have some time in the next few days to do this -- and the pending csih bugfix...
