Subject:	link call patched [was Re: broken 'ln' behavior -Reply]
References:	<s8fc30b4 DOT 079 AT rwdi DOT com>

FYI, I have patched the link(2) call in cygwin1.dll so that paths
are checked if they have a trailing slash. In that case, link()
bails out now with EINVAL.

This patch will be part of the tomorrows snapshot.
