I'm having a problem getting `join` to work on uwin.
$ uname -a
UWIN-W7 bear02 4.5/6.1 2010-06-08 i686 i686 32/32 UWIN

I'm trying to "normalize" extracted data so I have all fields for import...

file1 (field list) contents:
1:product_id
2:item_num
4:description
5:image
6:price
7:qty
8:label
9:fabric
10:condition
12:chest
13:arm
14:length
15:size
16:pattern
17:colors
18:style
19:dents
20:swatch

file2 (extracted product) contents:
1:product_id:X_0806-17-18
2:ItemNumber:X0806-17-18
4:Description:Cool sleeveless
5:Image:X_0806-17-18.jpg
6:Price:29
8:Label:Ui-Maikai - Hawaii
9:fabric:cotton
10:Condition:Excellent
12:Chest_measure:46"
13:Arm_measure:sleeveless
14:Length:mid calf
16:Pattern:vertical stripe
17:Main_colors:indigo
18:Style:gathered at yoke
19:Dents:none
20:Swatch:0806_17-18.jpg

$ join -t: -a1 -i -e "" -o 1.2,2.3 file1 file2
yields the following:
product_id:X_0806-17-18
item_num:X0806-17-18
description:Cool sleeveless
image:X_0806-17-18.jpg
price:29
qty:
label:Ui-Maikai - Hawaii
fabric:cotton
fabric:
condition:
chest:
arm:
length:
size:
pattern:
colors:
style:
dents:
swatch:

I'm expecting the following (which I get using ksh on my linux box):
product_id:X_0806-17-18
item_num:X0806-17-18
description:Cool sleeveless
image:X_0806-17-18.jpg
price:29
qty:
label:Ui-Maikai - Hawaii
fabric:cotton
condition:Excellent
chest:46"
arm:sleeveless
length:mid calf
size:
pattern:vertical stripe
colors:indigo
style:gathered at yoke muu muu
dents:none
swatch:0806_17-18.jpg

I've checked my line endings, and they're LF only. Been beating my head
against this for most of the day. Is uwin's join broken, or...?

Thanks, Bear
