Agh, you should have used

stage.py msvc-6.5

command line. Sorry for forgetting this.

Thanks, and hmm indeed! I think you have to remove "C:\Documents" directory 
(I'm pretty sure you have one now), and I should be more carefull in quoting 
all filenames passed to tools ;-)

I've just committed some changes, which should make stage.py pass. If you 
could confirm that, I think pwd.c change should be committed.

Thanks,
