+dnl Note OSTYPE: On Cygwin we need to use 'cygpath' to convert /cygdrive/c/foo to c:/foo
+dnl		 but we must not do that if we aren't building using Cygwin (notably msys), 
+dnl		 because cygpath doesn't exist.  It seems that 'bash' sets OSTYPE to 'cygwin' 
+dnl		 or 'msys' respectively, but cygwin's 'sh' does not.  So we hackily assume
+dnl		 that if the shell hasn't set it to 'msys' then we must be in Cygwin.  Sigh.

+dnl		 The Right Thing is probably to test $BuildPlatform instead, but we are sloppy
