Duh, obviously it has nothing to do with WINGISBASE. The problem is path
syntax:

content of dist.i686-pc-mingw32/etc/fontcap:
cyrilc|Cyrillic|0|c:\grasssrc\grass-6.3.0RC1\dist.i686-pc-mingw32\fonts\cyrilc.h
mp|0|utf-8|

sed command in the Makefile:

        -sed 's#'${GISBASE}'#'${INST_DIR}'#g' ${GISBASE}/etc/fontcap >
${INST_DIR}/etc/fontcap

which during install translates to

sed
's#'/c/grasssrc/grass-6.3.0RC1/dist.i686-pc-mingw32'#'c:/grass63RC1/grass-6.3.0RC1'#g'
/c/grasssrc/grass-6.3.0RC1/dist.i686-pc-mingw32/etc/fontcap >
c:/grass63RC1/grass-6.3.0RC1/etc/fontcap

fontcap entries need to use windows syntax under windows for gis.m to see
the font.

So, we need a specific sed command for windows, but do we have a variable
for GISBASE in windows path syntax ? If not how to create it ?

That's what I'm doing manually now for the binaries, but it would be great
to have this to happen automatically. Is this possible in the Makefile ?
