cygexec strangeness


Kind of strange.
Am I missing something on how cygexec is supposed to be used?

$ cat o.c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <fcntl.h>

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
        int r;

        if ((r = open(argv[1], O_RDONLY)) < 0)
                perror("open");

        return 0;
}

$ gcc -g3 -ansi -pedantic -o o o.c
$ ./o o.c
$ mount -f -b -s -X 'c:\cygwin' /
$ ./o o.c
$ strace ./o o.c
strace: error creating process o, (error 2)
strace: error creating process o, (error 2)
strace: error creating process o, (error 2)
strace: error creating process o, (error 2)
strace: error creating process o, (error 2)
strace: error creating process o, (error 2)

I don't get that, but I'll presume it's intertwined with what
I'm asking about.

$ PATH="/var/tmp:$PATH" strace o o.c

What's the obsession with c/w/system32 ?

Hmmm...

$ mount -f -b -s 'c:\cygwin' /
$ strace ./o o.c

   17   42076 [main] o 37300 open: 3 = open (o.c, 0x0)

BTW: It only does it during debugging with strace or gdb.

Looking for old threads, someone mentioned something in
regards to execvp/lp, but in my case it's just an open():

Other than that can't really find anything previous...
