The semantics of the Cygnus configure script can be adjusted to follow the new autoconf semantics. However, the Cygnus configure script invokes sub-configure scripts in different modes depending upon how the subdirectory should be build--for the build machine, the host machine, or the target machine. The algorithm for doing that used to be simple, and now becomes slightly more complex, because we now must pass different sets of options to different subdirectories. Ian
