If you actually read the message, you'd probably notice ActiveState Perl.

I have no idea why have you taken my post as an attempt to insult cygwin;
IF I had that in mind I'd dedicate a whole long post just to that.

FWIW, it was probably this:
        if test "$(uname -o)"= Cygwin; then

(I only mention becuase I was about to apply this, then I saw that line,
and now I'm confused, is this a fix for ActiveState, or Cygwin?)

Right. My bad. Should be "$(perl -e 'print $^O')" = MSWin32. That ($^O)
is actually how it is checked in git-annotate.perl (open_pipe).

Christopher, my apologies if that was that. I actually am hostile to
Windows and everything around it, and have my reasons for this.
Still, it does not justify the way how I did that patch.
