ocamlfind question on cygwin

Hello,

I'm trying to debug some installation issue on godi/mingw, and it  
seems to be a problem with ocamlfind using a cygwin console. When I try:

$ ocamlfind install lwt -destdir "/home/Administrateur/godi/lib/ocaml/ 
pkg-lib" META
ocamlfind: Bad configuration: Cannot mkdir /home/Administrateur/godi/ 
lib/ocaml/pkg-lib\lwt because a path component does not exist or is  
not a directory

The problem seems to be the '\'. But trying (by putting an additional  
'/' at the end of destdir):

$ ocamlfind install lwt -destdir "/home/Administrateur/godi/lib/ocaml/ 
pkg-lib/" META
ocamlfind: Bad configuration: Cannot mkdir /home/Administrateur/godi/ 
lib/ocaml/pkg-lib/lwt because a path component does not exist or is  
not a directory

It's even stranger: the path looks correct, and the parent directory  
exists:

$ ls /home/Administrateur/godi/lib/ocaml/pkg-lib/
bigarray  findlib       nethttpd              netsys   rpc-auth-dh     
str
camlp4    godi-script   nethttpd-for-netcgi1  num      rpc-generator   
stublibs
cgi       netcgi1       nethttpd-for-netcgi2  num-top  shell           
threads
cryptgps  netcgi2       netplex               pcre     smtp            
unix
dynlink   netcgi2-plex  netshm                pop      ssl
equeue    netclient     netstring             rpc      stdlib

Is there something that I am missing here?

Thanks,

Alan
