Hi together! While porting lots of software ( ;o) ) to interix (native win32) using the wgcc (interix-wgcc.sourceforge.net) compiler wrapper which i wrote for that purpose (generating native win32 exe's) i stumbled over a little autoconf problem. It is really little, and the fix is too.
The problem is: there are checks that write output in conftest.val which is then examined by configure. With wgcc, conftest.val includes a trailing \r\n (windows line ending). Autoconf does not take this into account, so all those tests (usualy determining sizes of data types) fail. I attached a simple patch i use for my local autoconf. If there are any objections / opinions on this, please tell me. Otherwise it would be cool to add it to the official autoconf source tree. The patch does not affect anybody else, but maybe it belongs somewhere else in the autoconf sources (i simply don't know ;o)). If so, tell me, and i'll change it. Kind Regards, Markus
