as I use the WIN32_OR_CYGWIN variable to control the logic in
plInBuildTree. When I tried it earlier with a more restricted fix
(using the C macro WIN32), the whole comprehensive test ran fine. I do
not have time right now to repeat this, but testing an example
manually did what it was expected to do.

Hi Arjen:

Thanks for that fix.  Your confidence in the fix appears to be well
justified; on my older version of MinGW/MSYS and also on my Debian
stable platform, I confirmed manually testing one example with -debug
gave the expected results.
