If your question is primarily related to handling paths in Makefiles, ask on the make-w32 list, but I can tell you right now that the answer is that backslashes in Makefiles are always wrong; use forward slashes. Windows is perfectly happy with forward slashes as directory separator. If your question is about Cygwin and mixing POSIX and Win32 paths (i.e. /var/log/foo vs. x:/some/thing) then try the Cygwin list, but be forewarned that Cygwin is intended to support POSIX apps in a POSIX environment and so trying to build/use apps that expect win32 paths in Cygwin will run into all kinds of impedance mismatches. If you want to build Windows apps that understand driver-letter-style paths, you should use MinGW, which also has a mailing list. But nothing above has anything to do with the compiler itself (the differences between MinGW/Cygwin are primarily the headers and runtime library support, not the interworkings of the compiler itself) so this is definitely the wrong place to ask.
