      Description

        In our configure code for rewriting cygwin paths reliably, we use this construct to find the root of the cygwin installation:

        # The cmd output ends with Windows line endings (CR/LF), the grep command will strip that away
        cygwin_winpath_root=`cd / ; cmd /c cd | $GREP ".*"`

        This used to work fine for a long time, but with the latest version of cygwin grep, it no longer removes \r from the string. A more robust implementation would be to instead use tr to explicitly remove both \r and \n.
