as far as I can see, vim works fine

Explorer still needs the .exe though. More importantly, a lot of build

The frequent questions and problems around this issue do make me

mintty 0.7.1-1 is on its way to the Cygwin mirrors. This is a feature
release with quite a few enhancements, fixes and optimisations.
DESCRIPTION
===
Mintty is a terminal emulator for Cygwin with a native Windows user
interface and minimalist design. Among its features are Unicode
support
-1 package built with Python
2.6 having been set to 'current' while Python 2.6 is still in
'testing'. Until this is fixed, you'll either need to downgrade bzr to
the previous version or upgrade Python to 2.6. I'd recommend
downgrading.

to see which files are being sourced when bash is

Therefore I'm wondering whether it wouldn't be better to address this
once and for all in cygwin_conv_path itself by doing what cygpath
does: assuming the resulting path fits into MAX_PATH, drop "\\?\" fro

produce paths starting with '\\?\UNC\' instead of '\\'. That function
