Re: Compilation problem on Cygwin

[Andrej Borsenkow <Andrej.Borsenkow@mow.siemens.ru>]

One more possibility (and I'm pretty sure it is it): the temporary files
are created on text-mounted file system and then simply copied into /home
and get DOS lineend.

anybody knows where configure creates temporary files?

Ville, could you check

- config.status, and probably a couple of makefiles (Src/Makemod,
Src/Makefile) for CR-LF? Better copy over to Unix (to avoid Cygwin
sideeffects; do not forget bin mode :-). If you see something like
"#!/bin/shCR" - it canot work of course.

- how your /tmp (and may be TMP, TEMP, TMPDIR) are mounted? If they are
inside text-mounted filesystem? Note, that Cygwin defaulted to text mount;
since 1.1.8 (I believe) it defaults to binary, but it won't change
defaults by update.
