LGTM. I cannot build for cygwin myself. So if this patch fixes the error for you, you might commit.
Yes, it fixes the error. But I'll wait for Eli's approval before committing.
There's the other proposal from Eli, use the root of the volume. This would work also, but I don't know how to find the root of a volume easily.
I don't either. And this would be especially tricky on Cygwin, where I'm not even sure what "volume" should mean. For example, /proc and /cygdrive are case-insensitive on my system, even though I've set my system up to be case-sensitive otherwise. So it seems that /proc and /cygdrive should be viewed as separate file systems.
Best regards, Ken
