Hi,

Michael Schierl reported that tests for directories like...

  if not exist %GNUS_ETC_DIR% mkdir %GNUS_ETC_DIR%

... don't work on Windows 9x/ME.  Instead he suggested to test for the
"nul" entry instead...

  if not exist %GNUS_ETC_DIR%\nul mkdir %GNUS_ETC_DIR%

... which works on Windows 9x/ME.  Could someone test if the new
version (I've just committed Michael's patch) works correctly on
Windows NT/2k/XP, too?

Bye, Reiner.
