Yes, they do.  Our GNU make based build system is currently used for all 
of the UNIX and
Linux systems we support and many of the commands do depend on a POSIX 
shell.  I had originally
hoped to use cmd.exe (and we may revisit that at some point), but at the 
moment, this is where
we're at.

that.  However,
your contributions on this mail list are excellent!
