The USE_MINGW_MSYS conditional is for people who want to make an Msys aware version of the pex* functions. I included it because when I volunteered to work on these function, I thought that it was a requirement, so I reluctantly added features to deal with Msys. Then I was told that it wasn't necessary. So, rather than nuke my changes, I added a conditional. It's likely to have bit-rotted by now. Again, I request that you all not cc me on this thread any further. cgf
