I have to add the important omission that I used **patched source** to build rc1 -- the patch I applied before attempting to build was posted to this List in: Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> From: Philip Guenther <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Patch for 3.80rc1, [was: GNU make 3.80 rc1] Date: Tue, 16 Jul 2002 22:53:45 -0700 Thanks, Mr. Guenther, for the patch. Sorry all for making a report that might cause someone implementing it some lost time. Naturally, I suggest attempting to evaluate a Cygwin build of `make' using a newer pre-release ('rc2') which I have read that Paul Smith expects to be making rather soon, or using source acquired via cvs. I'll be making a rather more detailed report later.
