Hi,
We are having the same problem then the one you already answers last
year in:
http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2005-04/msg00395.html
Since the cygwin-1.5.21-1 specified that future release might not
support win_9x
Do you have any plan for supporting longer path/filename than the
actual 260 byte limit?
I think Corrina outlined the basics of what needs to be done quite well.
This would be one place which would cause an incompatibility with non-NT-
based platforms of course.
