OK, I'll work on this.
I think I have things working nicely. Here is the general order of
things done,
- configure CGDB then readline
- compile readline, compile CGDB
CGDB use's headers from $top_srcdir/readline
e a way to pass in --disable-shared to the
AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS?
BTW, CGDB currently doesn't use any shared libraries, so if there is a
global setting I can use, that would currently be fine.
Thanks again,
Bob Rossi

if the size is 4 and then

now cygwin's cat doesn't understand \r\n, so
ac_cv_sizeof_int=`cat conftestval`
results in "4\r", which breaks the configure.in scripts that check with
