Out of curiosity, why did you prefer this:

  +#if defined(__MSDOS__) || (defined(_WIN32) && !defined(__CYGWIN__))
  +void normalize_for_lf (string &fn)
  +{
  +  int fnlen = fn.length();
  +  for (int i = 0; i < fnlen; i++) {
  +    if (fn[i] == '\\')
  +      fn[i] = '/';
  +  }
  +}
  +#else
  +void normalize_for_lf (string &)
  +{
  +}
  +#endif

to my original change:

  +void normalize_for_lf (string &fn)
  +{
  +#if defined(__MSDOS__) || (defined(_WIN32) && !defined(__CYGWIN__))
  +  int fnlen = fn.length();
  +  for (int i = 0; i < fnlen; i++)
  +    {
  +      if (fn[i] == '\\')
  +       fn[i] = '/';
  +    }
  +#endif
  +}
