Subject: Help with getting binaries to not print ^M
To: cygwin <cygwin AT cygwin DOT com>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

I have some precompiled binaries (from, e.g., ocaml, gtk+).  When I
install them to a location like D:\OCaml\bin and run them, the output
has a ^M at the end of every line.  When I copy the binaries to a
cygwin path (something that doesn't get translated to /cygdrive/),
they work fine.  This messes with all of my build scripts, which
except things like `ocamlc -where` not to have a trailing ^M.  So I
tried moving them to D:\cygwin64\, and this fixed some of the
problems, but it's still broken in some cases, like when `ocamlc
-where` gives "D:/cygwin64/OCaml/lib" and then a build script later
calls `D:/cygwin64/OCaml/bin/ocamlc -where`, and the ^M's come back.
It seems very broken to me that the output of an executable should
depend in this way on how it's called.  If it's relevant, I updated
cygwin-x86_64 earlier today, and mount gives me
$ mount
D:/cygwin64/bin on /usr/bin type ntfs (binary,auto)
D:/cygwin64/lib on /usr/lib type ntfs (binary,auto)
D:/cygwin64 on / type ntfs (binary,auto)
C: on /cygdrive/c type ntfs (binary,posix=0,user,noumount,auto)
D: on /cygdrive/d type ntfs (binary,posix=0,user,noumount,auto)
E: on /cygdrive/e type ntfs (binary,posix=0,user,noumount,auto)
Y: on /cygdrive/y type afs (binary,posix=0,user,noumount,auto)
Z: on /cygdrive/z type afs (binary,posix=0,user,noumount,auto)

Anyway, I'd like to know how to fix this without manually sticking in
code to strip ^M in all of my build scripts.

Thanks in advance.
