<pre>Because we are in the process of moving from pure Cygwin to a pure Windows build, some of our Cygwin tools end up calling native Perl and Python. When this happens, the path types received by Cygwin scripts can sometimes be unexpected.
The most obvious example of this failure is:
<span class="quote">> run-webkit-tests -1 fast</span >
... yielding the error:
DumpRenderTree was not found at /home/trybot/WebKit/C:/cygwin/home/trybot/WebKit/WebKitBuild/Relese/bin32/DumpRenderTree
This is happening because a DOS style path is being passed through a Cygwin "abspath' command, which prefixes the passed path with the current directories absolute path. This is wrong behavior, and should not be used when running under Cygwin or native Windows.</pre>
