Hmmm... well spotted! There is definitely something going badly wrong
with the configure script. Not sure quite what to do - I manage to get
an older install of cygwin off another machine and it compiled OK - but
got an error on first running about "pervasives.mli".
Not sure what to do next - at the moment, I'm sticking with the native
windows port, but since I don't have VC++ I can't compile optimised
code, which is a pain.
Has anyone else had configure errors under the latest cygwin? Can anyone
test this?
Thanks!
Simon
