Greetings, Wolfgang S. Kechel!

> The command 'cygpath -am .' yields different results between
> cygwin-3.1.4-1 and cygwin-3.3.2-1 on a Windows 10 box when the current

> Example with V3.1.4:

> cygpath -am .  ---> P:/mytool/gbuild/wintel/libtiff

> Example with V3.3.2-1

> cygpath -am .  ---> //mynas.mydomain.de/product/mytool/gbuild/wintel/libtiff

I'm pretty sure there was a discussion about it earlier.

cmd.exe can be configured to STFU.
