Is there any way I can force the cygwin build of g++ to output folders

(/cygdrive/c/folder/file) when writing dependency files (-MM option)?

No, there's no way to do that. You could probably come up with a perl
command that would filter the files through cygpath to convert the
paths, though.


I have this problem, 'cause I use a windows build of make 3.81beta3
and it does not recognize cygwin style paths.
The latest cygwin build of make is 3.80, which has some bugs, and I
cannot use it.

I think it would be more productive for you to get Cygwin make working
than to try to jerry-rig a windows make into a posix environment. If
you are running into a specific bug in the current packaged version that
is fixed upstream, then you should document it here and the Cygwin
package maintainer might release an updated package.

Well, how do I document the bug?
