As can be seen from the text below, chicken is using Unix-style forward
slashes to separate directories within filenames when it should be using
backslashes. This is causing errors when executing windows commands such as
copy. Changing CHICKEN_HOME to c:/chicken-new does not work either as copy
still fails with all forward slashes which is a surprise to me - I thought
Windows could use either forward or backward slashes for filenames.
A possibly stupid question: when using mingw32, one uses the normal
Windows shell, right? In that case the proper pathname directory
separator should be "\". Here is another patch that fixes a bug which
resulted in "/" separators on mingw32:

(if (and (eq? 'windows st) (not (eq? (build-platform) 'cygwin)))
