After reading FAQ/Doc I'm noting that goal of Cygwin is
for all programs to run under cmd.exe with backslashed file names
just fine.

I assume that cvs code needs a patch to convert
backslashed names to forward slashes or to
change the test in last_component() to find
backward as well as forward slashes.

Note I'm not the cvs cygwin maintainer.
I emailed the maintainer awhile ago
and haven't heard back.

Should I go into cvs tree and dig out
cvs patch code and get setup to alter
the cvs cygwin patch?

Thanks,
Heitzso
