Thanks for the patch but I wasn't looking for a simple patch to do this. I said I'd make the change if someone could suggest a better errno. When I suggested a patch, it was to somehow change the way Cygwin reported errors so that Windows errors could be exposed to programs that aren't expecting them. I was willing to look at an implementation if someone was going to take the time to add the non-trivial amount of code this would take. >If anybody is concerned about performance, I would be happy to rewrite >lookup to use some sort of hashing No thanks. >I also tried to use koders.com to search for exec* and EACCES. >It doesn't look like any code indexed by koders is fishing >specifically for EACCES after call to exec* to do some magic recovery.
