It's also no longer setting the directory to the "/regress" > subdirectory, which is begging for confusion if done uncautiously. The Makefile has large numbers of references to `pwd`. I would respectfully suggest that this particular objection would require a more invasive bit of work. The original test issue, however, was that the test Makefile was receiving a value of only '/regress' when driven by bash and both gmake and make. Putting it in quotes may be fine one Windows, but it broke the test suite. 7.6p1 tested fine, so I have to assume the breakage was there, especially when patched.
