I suspect that this is an upstream bug in makedepend, in that it does some canonicalization on paths, and assumes that '//' is the same as '/' everywhere in a path, which isn't true for an initial '//' (but happens to work on Linux, etc.) See SUSv4 Base specifications, section 4.13 "Pathname Resolution" ([1], registration required): "If a pathname begins with two successive <slash> characters, the first component following the leading <slash> characters may be interpreted in an implementation-defined manner, although more than two leading <slash> characters shall be treated as a single <slash> character." Unfortunately, you're probably going to have to fix this yourself, if it's causing you problems. Fortunately, makedepend is relatively small (See [2]).

I solved this by 'relativizing' paths before passing to makedepend using realpath --relative-to (from coreutils). Since makedepend is not heavily used anymore now gcc has the -MMD option, I wonder if the maintainers are taking any pull requests... If they don't and I create a patch, will cygwin add it in their build process of tools? -----Original Message----- From: Jon Turney <jon.turney@dronecode.org.uk> Sent: Sunday, 6 February 2022 5:48 PM To: Ronald Hoogenboom <RHoogenboom@irdeto.com>; The Cygwin Mailing List <cygwin@cygwin.com> Subject: Re: makedepend does not honor UNC path for -I and -Y On 02/02/2022 17:02, Ronald Hoogenboom wrote: > cygwin makedepend collapses the double-slash UNC path prefix to one single slash.
