Re: Absolute file-path under bash (cygwin32)

This discussion has become rather confused.  The topic *was*
having *non*-cygwin programs understand *unix* path names, by,
for instance hacking bash (I have faith that cygnus won't do this).
b17 already groks DOS paths (device:, backslash); b18 will handle UNC
paths (paths starting with double backslash).
