There has been an almost identical query, within the last week, on the 
MinGW-Users list, (which is probably where this would have been best 
asked too).

Are you saying that your compiler cannot find these header files, when 
you try to compile the code?  If so, then this has nothing to do with 
MSYS path translation; `dir/header.h' must be a relative path, which 
is relative to the directory in which the source file containing the 
`#include "dir/header.h" directive is to be found.

Otherwise...

...you will have to explain, preferably by means of a minimal self 
contained example, exactly what you mean by this.  You need to show 
us what is happening, to lead you to the conclusion that `MSYS cannot 
find the header files'.  How have you actually instructed MSYS, 
rather than your compiler, to look for them?
