ever since going from flac 1.1.2 to 1.1.4 on cygwin I've encountered an
issue
where I can't use metaflac on certain path specifications (see examples
below).
I tried again with 1.2.1 and it still doesn't work (I can't recall but
I think it is from the cygwin dist, not the windows installed version)
not sure if this is a flac issue, or a cygwin one, but thougt i'ld start
here.
thanx,
fish
