There are some problems with using openjade from cygwin package on
windows and native w32 PHP binary. ./configure script uses PHP version
to determine full working path, used in file-entities.php and later in
entities/file-entities.ent If PHP is compiled with cygwin, path should
be prefixed with /cygdrive/, in this case openjade.exe in ../php-tools
will not understand these paths. Also if openjade is from cygwin
and PHP binary is from standard win32 distrubutive, paths produced by
scripts/file-entities.php (i.e. c:/...) will be not understandable by
openjade, so..
Is it really necessary to have absolute paths in
entities/file-entities.ent? There's a comment indicating, that absolute
paths are keeped to have meaningful error messages. Is there any other
reasons? If there isn't - how about to use relative paths in
entities/file-entities.ent?

Look here for the rest of the thread.

The file-entities.php script already distinguishes between the cygwin and the windows compiled PHP, so if the cygwin PHP is used, cygwin path values are generated into the output (so that implies a cygwin installed openjade). It does not need to be relative. Even if a windows PHP is used, we can pass on a parameter to generate cygwin path values. Why is that a problem later on?
