There is now an upstream patch for make with Chris's blessing. It can be found here: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.make.windows/2136
If anyone wants to try it, and make sure it creates a make that does what you expect, now is the time. To use the patch you will have to run autoconf and autoheader before you run configure. -Bill -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
