Understood. I have copied Bruno and the gnulib list for an update on
what the status of this bug is, and what if anything is needed to fix
canonicalize_path on mingw.
The context:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.gnulib.bugs/25451
I would appreciate it if Gnulib folk would have another look at this
one.
Thanks,
Andy
