One case you may not have considered is that of emulation environments:

In the case of Cygwin, this is a non issue because the JVM isn't built
against the Cygwin libraries.  As a result, it has no knowledge of the
Cygwin UNIX-like path enhancements but can only understand what it already
knows about paths under Windows
Of course you're right, but nevertheless there may be an issue.  I have 
not tested
this lately (we have been moving away from Cygwin/win32 in favor of Linux)
but I believe if you run ant from a bash shell under Cygwin on windows,
you get a different value from "os.name" than you do if you run ant from 
a DOS box.  

Can someone with access to a Cygwin/Windoze box verify this?    
I want to make sure I wasn't under the influence of too many
chocolate-covered espresso beans! :-)
