Description:
 This problem came up while making the GRASS GIS under cygwin on Win98 at
the
        bottom of a complicated series of make driven shell scripts.

 Basically a shell script can't see the script it wants to execute even
though it exists.

Repeat-By:
 However, it can be brought down to the following script:

 ls -al ./gmake5.0
 ./gmake5.0

 Make a file called mk containing the above two lines which in turn
 check for the existence of the file and then execute it.

        Make an arbitrary file called gmake5.0.

 Execute mk.

 Example output:

 $ ./mk
 -rw-r--r--   1 mike     unknown        79 Nov 22 19:33 ./gmake5.0
 ./gmake5.0: not found

 ls can see the file, but the shell can't!

 chmod doesn't work either:

 $ chmod +rwx ./gmake5.0

 $ ls -al ./gmake5.0
 -rw-r--r--   1 mike     unknown        79 Nov 22 19:33 ./gmake5.0
