cygwin vs. windows paths

[Bernhard . Rumpler]

Hallo,

this has been a topic on this list some time ago,
but I could not find any satisfactory answers: 

Libtool, when used from cygwin, creates paths in 
cygwin format, e.g., /cygdrive/c/libs/libfoo.la.

The MinGW tools require paths to be in windows/dos
format, e.g., c:/libs/libfoo.la.

Is it somehow possible to make libtool generate
paths in the required format?

thanks,
Bernhard
