 Then maybe really add something like --enable-dos-paths which defaults to
no on Cygwin and Yes on MinGW ?
 IMHO it's a little bit inconvenient that you have to use config.cache trick
in order to build a fully working Make for Cygwin, and this is not
documented anywhere. First time, when i didn't know about this, i've got a
problem.
