On Windows, we have a problem with messages like this (and many others)
that reference $path. eval_gettext has to export 'path', but on Windows
environment variables are case-insensitive. In the substitution, this
happens to pick the value of 'PATH' rather than of 'path'... Can you do
something about this?

Of course, the problem is not limited to 'path' at all, but it is a
prominent example discovered by the test suite.
