Fixing that would indeed be nice, which does mean that mingw needs a
separate implementation distinct from the Unix way of doing things.

But not incorrect, since windows treats / and \ synonymously. But yes,
having a canonical form that always favors \ would be nice.

Why is this quoted? It incorrectly passes the empty string as an
argument if CONFIGURE_ARGS is not provided in the environment. I like
the idea of being able to provide overrides like this; but the current
practice is that you instead do:
./gnulib-tool --create-testdir --dir=xyz --with-tests module
at which point you then have a self-contained directory that can be
copied to any other machine (perhaps via NFS) and run ./configure
--args-of-your-choice in that directory. That is, ./gnulib-tool --test
is shorthand for the default case that creates the directory and runs
configure with no arguments, but you can split the two steps when you
want to do more detailed testing.

NACK. We prefer to cater to mingw rather than wine (since wine often
has bugs that pure windows does not), and we require the bare minimum
set of basic utilities as required by the GNU Coding Standards be
present before running tests (that is, blindly assuming that rm is
installed is appropriate - you haven't properly set up mingw if it is
not available).
That, and if you can still manage to convince me that this is a good
change, then you need to make it to a lot more test files than just
test-canonicalize-lgpl.c.

Not to mention that this is not the proper way to test for a native
windows (or even wine) compilation environment.

Hmm, these three lines do not appear under a mingw run; which means this
might be a wine bug.

But the test is successfully skipped, not failed, so I'm not sure about
this patch in isolation.

Actually, the proper way is to test HAVE_SYMLINK, not ifndef
__MINGW32__; see how test-readlinkat.c skips symlink-related tests for
mingw.

This just undid the previous patch. The real problem here is that the
cleanup is assuming that particular files exist, but they don't if
symlink support was missing; rather than an early exit here, the better
fix is to makes sure that symlink tests are properly skipped, including
cleanup from those steps.
Meanwhile, it is _required_ (by make distcheck) that the test clean up
anything it created on a successful run at the end; and this patch
bypasses that which would leave junk behind. The cleanup at the
beginning is a convenience (useful primarily if the test failed, and you
want to rerun it under a debugger without manually cleaning up first),
but not a necessity. So NACK to an early exit that bypasses proper cleanup.

Stack-allocating PATH_MAX bytes is a bad idea. True, on mingw, PATH_MAX
is only 256 or so, so it isn't horrible, but it is a bad idiom on almost
every other platform and should be replaced by malloc()ing a proper size.

Why not rely on gnulib's getcwd() module which guarantees that
getcwd(NULL,0) returns a malloc()d result; then you don't need a
stack-allocated array of PATH_MAX in the first place.

None of the other unit tests fprintf; it is sufficient to be silent if
the test passes, and use only ASSERT for output if the test failed.
However, other than the improper preprocessor check (rather than #ifdef
__MING32__, you should be using:
#if (defined _WIN32 || defined __WIN32__) && ! defined __CYGWIN__
), this does indeed look like a reasonable start for a unit test of
canonicalizing behavior on windows-style paths.

That's because Windows violates POSIX. A proper canonicalize
implementation is required to reject that path, which means your first
cut still needs to add some stat() calls.
