sorry, no joy. The problem is that gitexecdir=/usr/bin, but...
/usr/bin is a Cygwin mount point that points at c:\cygwin\bin.
so...
$ cygpath -m -a /bin
C:/cygwin/bin
$ cygpath -m -a /usr
C:/cygwin/usr
$ cygpath -m -a /usr/bin
C:/cygwin/bin
$ cygpath -m -a /usr/share
C:/cygwin/usr/share
and the result is that both exedir_SQ and libdir_SQ have the value
/usr/share/git-gui-lib
I don't think there is a portable solution here. Maybe just say
if test "$(uname_O)" = Cygwin; then \
GITGUI_RELATIVE=; \
and be done with it.
