Hmm, cygwin_conv_to_win32_path() simply invokes this: cygwin_conv_path (CCP_POSIX_TO_WIN_A | CCP_RELATIVE, path, MAX_PATH) And I can't see anything suspicious in the source code of that either. Although, what if the 'Cygwin' in 'Cygwin/mintty' happens to be a symlink in the current directory that points to an absolute path?
