allow executing a path in backslash notation

The attached patch allows executing a path in backslash notation. This can be tested in the Cygwin builds of GNU make with the "DOS compatibility" compile-time option of GNU make enabled, such as those from Cygwin make packages 3.79 and 3.80. $ cat dos-compat.mak default: ..\echo.exe

The IM convert command handles jpeg images well. I'm a novice with ImageMagick, but I don't normally see -geometry used this way. I could be wrong with what you're trying to do, but if you're simply trying to resize a test jpeg with the 600x notation I'd guess you're resizing with intent to maint

Hi, I think Cygwin 1.7 has a concurrency issue with the shared state initialization - which we experience because we use Cygwin in a probably untypical fashion: We call from a non-Cygwin shell a non-Cygwin gnumake. The Makefile rules mostly call a non-Cygwin C compiler and linker. However Makef
