Corinna,

Thanks for your answer!

> Wrong style.

Yeah, I know but it worked this time and it's so handy to just use
good ol' DOS paths...

Note that you used "test/bin" instead of test.bin in last two examples
but this shouldn't make any difference provided that you have test
folder and no test/bin folder in your $HOME.

Interesing, I just did exactly same and it failed:
  gribov DOT y AT s-cw-head ~/build/upc/opt
  $ ./a.exe //s-cw-head/c\$/test.bin   # <- same node
  success

  gribov DOT y AT s-cw-head ~/build/upc/opt
  $ ./a.exe //s-cw-node01/c\$/test.bin   # <- different node
  ftell(p) == sizeof(data) failed at io.c:29

Let me see if I find something in Cygwin's BLODA list installed on
these machines.
