I wanted to let everyone know that I'm aware of the fact that make-3.82 has been released. However, given the number of reported problems in the make bugs mailing list, I don't plan on releasing a new version of GNU make until the dust has settled. That means no new version of make for at least a month.
Also, given the ability to use more UNIX-like filenames in Cygwin 1.7.x, I'm contemplating not doing what I'd previously mentioned - using new changes in GNU make to allow MS-DOS file names like "c:\foo" in makefiles. I'll have to investigate just how much the Windows-isms in GNU make's code impact Cygwin make before I make a final determination. I may just decide to reenable the --ms-dos option as it used to be in the old days. Or, if that's too much work, I might just turn off special-case handling of c:\blah entirely - just like it is in make-3.81.
FYI.
