This CYGWIN build that failed was from the latest nightly build downloaded this morning (30Jan2006).

failure with the latest nightly build on CYGWIN which was installed using the
default /cygdrive/c . Can I edit out the assertion as a workaround or what?

John checked in a fix a few days ago. Do you have his fix? It looks like this:

- {
- const char * P = getenv("PATH");
- const char * slash = 0;
- slash = strchr(P+1,'/');
- assert(slash != 0);
- strncpy(cygpath,P,slash-P+1);
- cygpath[slash-P+1] = '\0';
- assert(strlen(cygpath) < 246);
- strcat(cygpath,"c/foo/bar");
- }
+ cygwin_conv_to_posix_path("c:\\foo\\bar", cygpath);
