Hm.

the follow => 1 is needed, else makeBaseApp won't follow symbolic links.
(That's perl 5.8.4 on Linux).

Find used to work for symbolic links without the extra argument, but for

this perl it is needed. (I don't have all perl versions here, so I can't

tell when Find was changed to not follow symlinks by default.)

What does the perl doc on your cygwin system say on find() ?

Ralph,

The following changes do not work on win32. On win32 no directories
and files are created and there are no error messages.
This is using cygwin perl v5.8.7.

I see that also. That's probably a recently introduced behavior.
