This is confusing different issues, isn't it? One issue is the
character that separates file names in a path; the other is whether
backslashes and/or drive specs are significant in file names. (Note
that the GNU coding standards say that "path" is for lists of file
names, not for a single file name, so HAVE_DOS_PATHS is poorly-named.)
How about something like the following instead?
if test -d '.\.\.'; then
AC_DEFINE([HAVE_DOS_FILE_NAME_SEPARATORS], 1,
[Define this if your system uses backslashes to separate
file name components.])
fi
Anyway, as far as the original bug report goes, I no longer have
access to Solaris 7 or 2.6 hosts, so I can't easily test any solution,
should one be proposed.
