MS-DOS path warning with maven


Hi!

I have cygwin 1.7.5 (up to date as of now) on Windows XP Pro SP3 and
maven v 2.2.1.

When I start mvn from a shell (I use mintty running bash): i get a warning:


cygwin warning:
  MS-DOS style path detected: F:\winsux\prg\apache-maven-2.2.1/boot/
  Preferred POSIX equivalent is: /cygdrive/f/winsux/prg/apache-maven-2.2.1/boot/
  CYGWIN environment variable option "nodosfilewarning" turns off this warning.
  Consult the user's guide for more details about POSIX paths:
    http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using.html#using-pathnames


I found it strange, since maven is cygwin aware and should use cygwin paths.

Is this some bug?

Regards,
David

PS: I use Sun JDK 1.6.0_20 as Java environment.
