Made some progress, but i would benefit from some input on a few things. 1) This[0] cygwinports commit and a related gnulib[1] commit. Which version of cygwin (CYGWIN_VERSION_API_MINOR) corresponds to 1.7 (is the 1.7 number even correct?). As a less-intrusive fix, i can switch #ifdef __CYGWIN__ to #if defined(__CYGWIN) && (!defined (CYGWIN_VERSION_API_MINOR) || CYGWIN_VERSION_API_MINOR < somevalue) 2) This[2] cygwinports commit. I don't quite get what the author means. Does he mean that returning a path that looks like "//etc" from parsing a URI "file:////etc" is correct? Or the opposite, that it should return "/etc" ? The commit seems to be saying one thing, while the code does something else.
