Daniel,

I never meant to imply this was "curl's fault" (whatever that means).
However, if one cannot build libcurl in a given situation, it might
be helpful to have a work-around, wouldn't you agree?

In my case, the problem comes from the fact that I am trying to
build libcurl in cygwin, but my tool chain is supposed to run
in Windows/DOS, and thus prints DOS pathnames in some situations,
which cygwin cannot deal with.

I don't think there's a clean solution to my problem, which is why
I offered merely a work-around.
