I also did a test on 4.1.2, and it detects Cygwin just fine. Here's what I did, using php4-200210220900: ./cvsclean (this did NOT delete config.cache, so I deleted it by hand) ./buildconf ./configure --without-xml --prefix=/usr Here's the first few lines of output (I can provide the rest if it will help) --- creating cache ./config.cache checking for Cygwin environment... no checking for mingw32 environment... no checking host system type... i686-pc-cygwin checking for gcc... gcc checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) works... yes checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) is a cross-compiler... no checking whether we are using GNU C... yes checking whether gcc accepts -g... yes checking whether gcc and cc understand -c and -o together... yes checking how to run the C preprocessor... gcc -E checking for AIX... no checking if compiler supports -R... --- Just FYI, autoconf -V returns "autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.53a". This is on a freshly-formatted Win2K Pro box. Hope this helps, --Paul ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-07-30 01:00:10] php-bugs@lists.php.net No feedback was provided for this bug for over a month, so it is being suspended automatically.
