I took a quick shot at 3.1. It chokes on lib/sh/getcwd.c line 172, because of a reference to dirent->d_fileno, which doesn't exist on DJGPP. I see something nearly identical in 2.05b - but that file doesn't seem to be being compiled at all, and I'm quite confused as to why that's the case. This may be a matter of doing too much porting on not enough sleep, though. Has anyone figured out a fix for the current version? I took a crack at it, and rapidly realized quite how much I was in over my head... :-P This is the #1 issue with DJGPP that I have, these days - it prevents a lot of "configure"-style scripts from running under v2.04, and I find myself needing a lot of features that are missing in v2.03.
