If Unix-only code is generating this, it might not recognize this as a
DOS absolute path, and think it looked like a relative path, as it
does not start with "/"; so might omit matching and trimming the DOS
prefix "c:/djgpp/include/", to leave only the standard path
<sys/stat.h>.

Thanks. Take care, Brian Inglis
