Subject:	[PATCH]: which 1.6-1
X-TPG-Antivirus:	Passed

Hi,

I have used "which" under cygwin and discovered that it does not work 
correctly (compared to solaris which) when passed an absolute path. For 
example:

which /usr/bin/ksh

returns "command not found" under cygwin but "/usr/bin/ksh" under 
solaris. I have created a patch against which 1.6-1 that checks for an 
absolute path.

Daniel.
