Subject: System/Environment PATH entries in "c:\" translate to "/"
Date: Mon, 4 Oct 1999 13:31:20 -0700
MIME-Version: 1.0
X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2448.0)

In my System/Environment, my PATH variable has several entries on drive "D",
and several on drive "C".   When I start up Bash, the entries on drive "D"
get translated correctly to "//d/", but the entries on drive "C" get
translated to just "/".  It removes the drive designation.  This causes
things to fail when I run from drive "D".

Is this a bug, or am I missing something?
