Replying to [comment:16 glynn]: > Also, both of the cited bug reports relate to the msys.bat script, > which isn't relevant to GRASS' use of MSys. see mswindows/GRASS-Installer.nsi line 418 (etc.) and mswindows/README.html section 3. The script is used, and those patches are incorporated. It occurs to me that if you put yourself in the mindset of MS Win world then putting so much trust into the file name is not so bizarre. After all, it's not such a great leap from resting so much trust on the contents of the last three letters of the filename, why not put meaning on the first 8+ as well? Not to defend it as very rational or nuthin, or a fit idea after ~1984 (or whenever the first Macintoshes came out), just saying.
