Fixed MSYS <-> Windows path convertion.

Replaced the Windows real path from mount hack with a more
reliable and simpler hack: the MSYS shell has a builtin pwd
which understands a -W option which does convertion to Windows
paths. Tested and confirmed that this works on all MSYS versions
I have back to a 3 year old one.
