You are right, there is no reason for this file to have changed, the release/7.1 branch changes should be bugfixes only. Thanks for your answer. The MinGW on Cygwin with native Perl platform shows more test failures for the master branch. Given that the failures are different from MinGW on MSYS, and given all the issues of the MinGW on Cygwin with native Perl platform my current stance is not to try to setup specific checks to skip tests for that platform and let the test fail. Although overall texi2any on that platform should give correct results for most real world manuals, at least for now I do not think that it is worth doing something specific for tests. -- Pat
