True. But I wanted to discuss it at first here. Anyway it seems that it's not 
only problem. Anyway it seems to need debugging as there are still problems:

TMPDIR=E:/    works

TMPDIR=E:\    works

TMPDIR=E:/TMP/    works

TMPDIR=E:/TMP\	 does not work (access in try() fails and as result TMP is 
	tried). Does not work both with currnt CVS version of DJGPP and 
	v2.03 update. In current CVS version  _chmod(file_name,0)  fails
      (in src/libc/posix/unistd/access.c)
