Martin,

You might want to install the "ctags" package and run that over the Cygwin
source.  This will provide you with backreferences from any use of a type
or a function (or a macro) to its definition.

As for the macro itself, you must be looking at a very old source.
SLASH_P is no more as of 1/9/2003...  I did do a "grep -l SLASH_P *.h" in
the winsup/cygwin directory of an older source, and, sure enough, there it
was, in line 104 of winsup.h (cygwin-1.3.12-2-src).
