cygpath: out of memory

[Buchbinder, Barry (NIH/NIAID) [E]]

Upgrading from 1.5 to 1.7 I started getting an error message from
cygpath where I hadn't previously.  This can be exemplified by the
following.

$ cmd /c dir /s /b o:\\ | cygpath -u -f - | wc
cygpath: out of memory
  20029   20029  332488

While I've fixed my problem*, I thought that the cygwin developers
might want to know.

* xargs is my friend.  For the record, here is my fix.

$ cmd /c dir /s /b o:\\ | tr '\n' '\0' | xargs -0 cygpath -u | ...

Thanks for all the work that all the developers have put into cygwin.
