VPATH of the form C:/foo

[Benoit Sigoure]

Hello list,
I'm Using GNU Make 3.81 on Cygwin.  I compiled it myself from source  
with the two following patches that were approved on this ML:
  http://www.tsunanet.net/~tsuna/make-3.81-cygwin.patch
  http://www.tsunanet.net/~tsuna/make-3.81-cygwin_MAKE_expansion.patch

I compiled `make' as follows:

  wget http://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/make/make-3.81.tar.gz
  tar xfz make-3.81.tar.gz
  cd make-3.81
  patch -p1 <make-3.81-cygwin.patch
  patch -p0 <make-3.81-cygwin_MAKE_expansion.patch
  ./configure
  make
  make install

Everything works fine excepted that when I use a VPATH of the form C:/ 
something, the files in the source tree are not found because make / 
seems/ to separate the VPATH with colons.  I believed that, on  
Windows, the VPAH would be semi-colon separated, but maybe I was wrong.

Is this a known bug?  Or unsupported?

Cheers,
