(cc'ing porters).
I just tried to smoke cygwin on perl-current (patch 11765), and was
unable to successfully configure anything: the configure died half way
through.
Running it by hand (as ./Configure), and accepting the defaults
everywhere (well, except for the WHOA THERE at the beginning), I see
that:
After selecting the default [Policy cygwin], I see
:not found
:not found
:not found
After selecting the default [n] for build multiplicity, I see:
./xenix: not found
After selecting the default [gcc] for the compiler, I see:
'ry.c:0: malformed option `-D DEBUGGING
Uh-oh, the C compiler 'gcc' doesn't seem to be working.
You need to find a working C compiler.
Either (purchase and) install the C compiler supplied by your OS vendor,
or for a free C compiler try http://gcc.gnu.org/
I cannot continue any further, aborting.
$ uname -a

Can anyone supply me with clue?
