Mark,

When making Make 3.76.9.2 a1 release today I had Bash crash on me.  I traced
the problem back to the init_cwd not being initalised to NULL in dospath.c
at line 75. Once I initalised the init_cwd the crash went away because the
check to see if the init_cwd was null then worked. The updated line is as
follows:-

static char *init_cwd = NULL;

The output of the crash was:-
