-        * configure.ac (srcdir) [MINGW32]: Convert to an absolute MSYS
-        path of the form "/c/foo/bar" to simplify conversion of formats.
+        * configure.ac (srcdir) [MINGW32]: If it is an absolute path,
+        force the format "/c/foo/bar" to simplify conversions to native
+        windows format.
