Quoting "William A. Hoffman" <address@hidden>:
One thing: my original idea was to have a configure option that enabled the DOS path capabilities. I note some here are advocating a configure test which simply sets the HAVE_DOS_PATHS option if Cygwin is detected, rather than leaving it up to the user. Is it the case that people might want to build a Cygwin version of make _WITHOUT_ DOS path support?Good question. So, you are thinking this would be a --have-dos-paths option to configure?
The appropriate switch is --with-dos-paths and --without-dos-paths. There may be autoconf m4 filters for this already, you'll need to check.
