And it gets even more complicated. I do my build work with cygwin and 
/ or mingw. I've installed cygwin to use Unix LEs but my editor is a 
Windows editor which can switch between different LEs. So currently 
I'm going with the path of least resistance, a specific conversion 
step at post build, because I've got a lot on my plate right now 
especially with a run-up to a new release.

Thanks for the suggestion, though. I'll look further into it.
