Subject: cpp doesn't find _local_ include files

Cpp does not always find local include files. i.e.

	C:\DJGPP\LIBSRC\C>gcc -c gnu\_xordi3.c 
    	gnu\_xordi3.c:2: gnulib2/gnulib2.c: file not found

Everything works alright, if you use slashes instead of
backslashes. 
	C:\DJGPP\LIBSRC\C>gcc -c gnu/_xordi3.c 

File _xordi3.c:
#define L_xordi3 
#include "gnulib2/gnulib2.c" 

I think, this should be considered a bug. 

If you ask, why I want to use backslashes. It's because I wanted to
recompile libc using dmake instead of gnuish make. (gnuish make always
prints "out of virtual memory"). dmake executes the command like in
the first example, when the DOS switchar is slash. I didn't know
how I could change the switchar (I don't know it now either, but I
cheated dmake with set SWITCHAR=-).
