I have not run rtems-test on Windows much at all. The main reason was the lack
of serial console support.

I suspect the problem will be related to the path not being in host format. What
is 'data[0]' here:

https://git.rtems.org/rtems-tools/tree/tester/rt/config.py#n122

?

The call 'path.host(..)' will convert the path.

This is sort of tricky because there could be other paths in the command that
also need to be converted. The command line comes from a config file so it is
not easy to know what is ok and what is not.

I suppose calling 'path.exists()' on each element in 'data' and those that exist
convert to a host path might help. Something like:

def convert_args(args):
    nargs = []
    for arg in args:
        if path.exists(arg):
            nargs += [path.host(arg)]
        else:
            nargs += [args]
    return nargs

It breaks for things like '-I/blah/blah' but it might be worth hacking for now
and seeing what else breaks next.
