Thank you for the bug report. This bug has been fixed in the
development sources, which can be downloaded using git from
git://git.sv.gnu.org/grep.git

configure defines MKINSTALLDIRS="\$(top_srcdir)/mkinstalldirs" which results in MKINSTALLDIRS = @MKINSTALLDIRS@ in most Makefile.in files, however,

po/Makefile.in.in defines MKINSTALLDIRS = $(top_srcdir)/@MKINSTALLDIRS@ which results in a double slash in the generated Makefile.in because the "$(top_srcdir)" variable does not get substitued at that time and the leading "/" is left.

This is generally harmless on Unix derived systems, but on Cygwin under windows it gets treated as a network share path

I believe that the fix is just to remove the extra "$(top_srcdir)/" in po/Makefile.in.in since it is handled by configure while defining MKINSTALLDIRS

I just checked cvs head and it's still wrong there and I don't see it listed as an open bug
