Testsuite total failure on Windows

Thomie
Is this you working on my show-stopping problem with the tetssuite?
sh: line 0: cd: c:/users/simonpj/appdata/local/temp/ghctest-qbd2zw123.T9662: No such file or directory
If so, thank you! If not, might you look (email attached). I am so stuck.
Even a commit to roll back would be fine. But I don't know where to start.
Thanks
Simon

Hi Simon, Is this you working on my show-stopping problem with the tetssuite?
sh: line 0: cd: c:/users/simonpj/appdata/local/temp/ghctest-qbd2zw123.T9662: No such file or directory
I pushed a fix. It was my mistake. It turns out there are 2 types of Python on Windows (msys2 and mingw), and the way they handle paths (and also unicode) is subtly different. This also explains why you sometimes see validate failures that others don't (such as T5975a). But now I know the cause, so we can do something about it (later). By the way Simon: all your emails land in my Spam folder, no matter how many times I tell click the "Not Spam" button in Gmail. I don't know who's to blame, but it's really only your emails that end up there, so you may want to check that out. Thomas

I get the same spam ranking for Simon's emails. My gmail app says it's
because they're from Microsoft but doesn't fill requirements for
microsoft.com . Presumably this is because the sender is the list server
and not the normal mail server. So it doesn't seem easy to fix. But it
would be weird if Gmail is entirely unaware of mailing lists, so maybe
there's some way to get one white-listed.
