BTW: I just wanted to mention that Mozilla configure still fails, the
strange thing AFAIK here is that a test from command line (cygwin here,
but same results with Windows command line) converts the path correctly
(also with the "old" bash) but from the configure script it fails. See
this test with a script:
$ env
[...]
MOZ_TOOLS=H:\moztools

$ tail test-script
MOZ_TOOLS_DIR=`cd "$MOZ_TOOLS" && pwd`
echo $? $MOZ_TOOLS_DIR

$ sh test-script
test-script: line 1: cd: H:\moztools: No such file or directory
1

And now directly on command line:
$ MOZ_TOOLS_DIR=`cd "$MOZ_TOOLS" && pwd` \
> echo $? $MOZ_TOOLS_DIR
0 /cygdrive/h/moztools
