Summary: ld doesn't accept msys paths from gcc for -Map output

Initial Comment:
If ld gets passed, via gcc, something like
-Wl,-Map,/mingw/foo/bar.map
it will halt with 
'cannot open map file /mingw/foo/bar.map: No such file 
or directory'
if the directory does not exist in outside of the msys 
environment. That is, even though /mingw/foo/bar.c 
might exist under msys and be a perfectly valid path to 
pass to GCC or other tools, if it is not a valid path to 
Windows, ld will abort. The problem likely exists in other 
places. I've checked, and directly calling ld with the 
same option does not suffer the same problem.

$ ld -v
GNU ld version 2.13.90 20030111
