Having scanned the man-page I'm still a bit confused abouts it's doing. It's seems like I have to indicate each and every directory containing binaries in question explicitly.Yes, of course. As opposed to... what? Wildcards?I thought at first that it would affect entire subtrees, like mount usually does.It does affect entire subtrees. I wouldn't think that you'd want every file in an entire subtree to be considered to be a cygwin executable though. YMMV.
This should probably read "does _not_ affect" - right?! Otherwise, I cannot make the next sentence make sense...
I would guess no, then... I would guess you need indicating the "bin/", "sbin/", etc. directories explicitly...Well, if all it affects is how commandlines are passed etc., I probably do. Can you sanity-check the mounts I plan to use? Assuming it's run from the cygwin bash prompt, I'd type mount -f -X 'c:\DATA\crosstool-0.29' '/cygdrive/c/DATA/crosstool-0.29' mount -f -X 'c:\DATA\opt\crosstool' '/cygdrive/c/DATA/opt/crosstool' to mark both the build tree and the install tree as containing pure Cygwin executables (and lots of data files and directories). I expect that, for example, all of /cygdrive/c/DATA/opt/crosstool/blah/bin/foo /cygdrive/c/DATA/opt/crosstool/blah/sbin/bar /cygdrive/c/DATA/crosstool-0.29/build/blah/bin/bletch would then accept unlimited length (well, at least much longer) commandlines when invoked by a cygwin process. Right?
