Sure; but someone already did that: see the libgw32c implementation of
stat.
Aha, that's probably the right place for this discussion!

Maybe on your way it cant hurt to checkout window's native idea of
whats an absolute path:
char *abspath(const char *in, char *out)
{
return in && GetFullPathName(in, MAX_PATH, out, NULL) ? out : NULL;
}
Looks simplicistic, but works.

Paul, I don't understand the advice to move the w32 code into some of
the w32 specific files. abspath is a general-purpose function, not
limited to w32, its definition is on function.c. We don't have an
established mechanism in the Make sources to overload functions with
OS-specific variants. So
