Subject: cygpath doubles backslashes
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

when /usr/bin is converted by "cygpath -w -p" it doubles the number of
backslashes produced

$ cygpath -w -p /usr/bin:/bin
G:\\bin;G:\bin

Not sure if this is a desirable side-effect.

$ mount
G:\\bin on /usr/bin type system (binmode)
G:\\lib on /usr/lib type system (binmode)
c:\tmp on /tmp type system (binmode)
G: on / type system (binmode)
c: on /dosc type system (binmode)
f: on /dosf type system (binmode)
h: on /dosh type system (binmode)
i: on /dosi type system (binmode)
j: on /dosj type system (binmode)
t: on /dost type system (binmode)
d: on /cygdrive/d type system (binmode,noumount)
e: on /cygdrive/e type system (binmode,noumount)
k: on /cygdrive/k type system (binmode,noumount)
l: on /cygdrive/l type system (binmode,noumount)

All software latest available yesterday

Cheers
