 Hi,

 {{{
 imagery/i.cluster/main.c
 raster/r.out.mpeg/main.c
 raster/r.topmodel/misc.c
 lib/gis/opencell.c  G__open_cell_old()
 }}}
 all hardcode to /dev/null which doesn't exist on Windows.

 perhaps
 {{{
 #ifdef __MINGW32__
 #define NULLDEV "NUL:"
 #else
 #define NULLDEV "/dev/null"
 #endif
 }}}
 or somesuch? (no idea)


 d.ask and XDRIVER do too, but they don't work on MS Windows.
