Hi,
the legal win32 paths containing period like "c:.\" or "c:." are
incorrectly converted by
cygwin_conv_to_posix_path() to "c:./" and "c:." respectively. See last
two output
lines of the attached example program.

#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
int i;
char posix_buffer[MAX_PATH];
char *win32_path[]={ "c:\\",
"c:",
"c:\\.\\",
"c:\\.",
"c:.\\",
"c:.",
NULL
};
for(i=0;win32_path[i];i++)
{
cygwin_conv_to_posix_path(win32_path[i], posix_buffer);
printf( "%s\t" "%s\n", win32_path[i], posix_buffer );
}
return 0;
}
$ gcc -o parameters parameters.c
