[Omake] SVN Commit: OMake Build System (Rev. 11085)

[Jason Hickey]

Strange, let me take a look.  A thought that may or may not be related,

    - Running cd does not actually issue a system call yet.
      The directory is handled differently on Win32 and Unix

    - On Win32 the starting dir is passed to CreateProcess
    - On Unix, the sequence is fork->chdir->exec
