From the strace log, the problem is that this:
\home\boyde\prj\ncurses\test\cardfile.c
is being passed to stat(). This is a MS-DOS path spec that is not translated to
a cygwin spec due to Corinna's recent changes (which I asked for).
I don't know where in gdb this path is being munged so strangely but that is
what the problem is. It actually looks like a gdb bug.
