FILENAME here is from the debug info file (not from the user), I believe on
MinGW the path from DWARF is absolute (like in UNIX) and it has the format
d:\foo\bar (not d:foo\bar), doesn't it?
Whether user can / cannot then specify d:foo/bar is unrelated to the patch Tom
did above. It could be implemented but it would be a different code/patch.
Not that it would be a bug but the current code there
|| (HAS_DRIVE_SPEC (filename)
&& STRIP_DRIVE_SPEC (filename) == &filename[len - search_len]));
can IMO never match on real world MinGW DWARF files.
Thanks,
Jan
