I am not sure where this issue should sits - is it a perl problem or a
cygwin problem or windows? Not sure - but I have noticed just after
cygwin upgrade.
Perl seems to be finding files that don't exist:
$ ls -a
./ ../ Babel.pm
$ perl -e 'print (-f "./PRN.pm")'
1
$ perl -e 'print (-e "./PRN.pm")'
1
$ perl -e 'print (-e "./PR.pm")'
PRN.pm is reserved device in windows. You can't create a file with this
name in WinXP. But perl says the file exists now and it did not seem to
exhibit this behaviour before.
