Hi

I have many problems with \ in paths.
I know I shouldn't use \ in paths under B19 (it worked with B18)
but how could I do without?

Just take gcc:

bash-2.01$ gcc --print-search-dirs
install: /cygnus/b19/H-i386-cygwin32/lib/gcc-lib/i386-cygwin32\2.7-B19\

It's very irritating :(

Something new about this?

Thanks in advance
