Any chance of getting this patch applied ? I've updated the patch in bugzilla (#1157, not the typo'ed number below) to the latest SVN.

Hi!

Yes, the current cygwin python binding has some problems, I've installed it and compile without your changes! I just don't really understand why???

I've started to put the string name in brackets "../../xy.py" in one of the nmake files some days ago, instead of replacing the slashes by backslashes as you did - which seems to both be working with native python.

Do you know of any drawbacks of either solutions?

I still don't have a good idea what the right solution to this problem really is - and don't want to change a lot of places just to notice that this raises other problems :-)

Regards, ULFL
