I think it's related. My little test program shows that when cygwin_posix_to_win32_path_list() is called with "/cygdrive", it also returns an empty string. Strangely, "/cydrive/" returns "\". I have no idea why xemacs is calling the function with "/cygdrive" when following symlinks like the one

I've done a little debugging and here's what I've found out. It appears to be a problem/change to the behavior of cygwin_posix_to_win32_path_list(). When this function is called with a path of the form "/cygdrive/z/something", it returns an empty string unless the drive "z" actually exists. Thi

Hi, I've had the same problem as Ryan, and I have had to roll back to cygwin 1.3.5 as well. I can tell you that the problem has something to do with /cygdrive: what I have found is that visiting a file whose path begins with /cygdrive using C-x C-f, or using "File->Open..." on a directory that ha

I read on this list that someone else had problems with xemacs crashing with 1.3.6. Here is my experience with 1.3.6-3 and xemacs 21.4.5: anytime I try to visit a file, xemacs simply exits with code 1. It doesn't crash (at least according to gdb). It simply exits. Going back to 1.3.5-x fixes
