This is because of a problem in the readlink() function.  Chris checked in a
patch on 10/31.

Subject: RE: Cygwin RCS Build Instructions (or sometimes ash does not like
a.out)

Hi,

Just now I tried to build RCS 5.7 a couple of times using the instructions
and patches in Jason Tishler's message of Thu, 12 Oct 2000 10:27:45 -0400,
and everything works fine until the make installcheck step.  Then I get an
rcs error on the rcs -i -L test which fails with rcs error 0.  Any clues?

BTW, src/Makefile.in needs another patch as the programs to install end in
.exe:

*** Makefile.in~        Fri Nov  3 16:59:50 2000
--- Makefile.in Fri Nov  3 17:00:57 2000

Looking forward to any help.

Cheers,
