Seems to me the problem here is that mingw is passing these paths into Wine at all. The only apparent way to get to DOSFS_GetPathDrive is through DOSFS_GetFullName or DOSFS_GetShortPathName so either mingw is calling one of those functions with Unix path names or its calling some other Win32

Wine works around other problems on the build platform (eg. strength-reduce bug, detected a few lines after my patch in configure.ac). I don't see how broken headers are any different from a broken compiler or broken libraries, which we already detect and deal with in the configure script.

BSD is probably doing the same thing, but nevertheless, -STABLE (i.e. FreeBSD 4.x) has a bug in the pcm-driver (I think) which makes mapping the buffer write-only impossible (at least for me). FreeBSD 5.x does not have that problem and sadly the pcm-code between 4.x and 5.x is virtually the same.
