RE: 1.5.10: expr + configure failure + testcase (also on 1.5.11-1)

Chris, Ok. Running 09/14/04 snapshot is looking *good* so far. I stopped the test script at 150 passes. I'm starting my configure/build/redo test and will let that run overnight. I'll check in tomorrow AM and report on that. 1 successful configure/build so far. Thanks! -bogdan -- Unsubs

Cygwin on a stick
