Hi!
I don't know if this behavior is an NT portation issue, or an issue with the
base GNU tools.
If I issue:
cp ./test.c .
I end up with a 0 length file!
I know this may be a silly use of the cp command, but this exact sequence
happens because of the rules I have in a Makefile. Under unix, cp will
complain that the files are the same, and not do anything.
