That will fail under Cygwin. Cygwin translates pathnames containing forward slashes via a "mount table" to Windows-native paths. For example, "/usr/local/src" might be translated to "F:\Users\Dave\Project\Source". If the path contains backslashes, e.g., "\usr\local\src", the translation doesn't occur.
