Why should it?  Observe:

		  ((member argi '("-L" "-directory"))
		   ;; -L :/foo adds /foo to the _end_ of load-path.
		   (let (append)
		     (if (string-match-p
			  "\\`:"  <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
			  (setq tem (or argval (pop command-line-args-left))))
			 (setq tem (substring tem 1)
			       append t))

It should use path-separator instead of a literal ':'.

(No, you don't need to change anything in test/automated/Makefile,
since the MSYS Bash will automatically convert ':' into ';'.)
