something wrong with my MSYS installation?: msg#00044

Subject: something wrong with my MSYS installation?

Hi,

I'm a bit puzzled by my MSYS 1.0 installation.

$ grep --version
grep (GNU grep) 2.4.2

$ find -type f -exec grep xxx '{}' \;
find: grep: No such file or directory

$ echo $PATH
c:/opt/visual
cxx/2003/bin:/opt/jdk32/142_06/bin:.:/usr/local/bin:/mingw/bin:/bin:/c/WINDO
WS/system32:/c/WINDOWS:/c/WINDOWS/System32/Wbem

Looks like "visual cxx", i.e. the directory name with a blank,
causes this problem. Everthing works fine removing path

c:/opt/visual cxx/2003/bin

from $PATH.

Is this a known problem? How to fix it? The same scenario
does not cause a problem using cygwin.

Cheers,
Wolfgang.
