Isn't there another issue here, the virtual path given by the config tool
when it accesses the files?
On my system, the mounts are something like
/ C:\CYGWIN binmode
/c c:\ textmode <<<---- for sources
So if I put my epk in / (according to cygwin), then the config tool will be
accessing it in binary mode if it uses /net-1.0b1.epk or in text mode if it
uses /c/cygwin/net-1.0b1.epk.
Confusing! Or do I misunderstand how cygwin works with conflicts like this?
