Hi Erik,

Why don't you keep your SRC_PATH in real DOS style and convert it when
needed ? I do this myself for e.g. for CLASSPATH (I don't need this in
Cygwin style normally, except when I add paths automatically read by the
registry).

export SRC_PATH=c:\\source
cd `cygpath -u $SRC_PATH`

Greetings,
Jörg
