I think setup_win_environ (or its guts before some early refactoring) pre-dated CW_SYNC_WINENV. Before removing it, I'll have to verify some things -- like whether that-cygwin-fork-we-don't-mention has CW_SYNC_WINENV, and how hard it would be to add if not -- since I want run to work "over there" too. With respect to the orginal discussion that spawned this thread, I'm going to hold off on any changes to run/run2/cygutils until a consensus is reached regarding: 1) what's going to happen "inside" cygwin wrt win32 cwd; 2) what new APIs are provided 3) and a project on how soon an official 1.7.7 will be released with those changes and then evaluate how best to modify the client apps. -- Chuck -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
