[PATCH] fix install on cygwin with shared libraries

2001-06-02 Thread Robert Collins
There is a current problem with automake and libtool on cygwin when shared libraries are enabled. The problem is in two parts. The root cause of the problem is that the wrapper script for relinking binaries linked with .dll's when they are run from the build directory, cannot have a .exe extensio
