Follow-up Comment #2, bug #15947 (project make):
On Cygwin 1.5.17-1, I can't reproduce your `escape' failure against GNU make
3.81rc1.
> make: stat: p:foo: No medium found
I was really amazed when I saw this. I don't think make should even *try* to
read the status info of `p:foo' according to the contents of
tests/scripts/features/escape.
I wonder if it's a bug in your build of Cygwin. Well, I could be wrong. :=)

I'm worried when I see the test suit getting messier and messier. Can't we
devise a more elegant and more portable testing framework for our GNU make?
