Hey Gerrit,

No bug, I just should have RTFF. After installing the source with the setup
program, I naively tried to build it with:
cd /usr/src/cygwin-1.3.3-2
./configure
make

Oops. Seems the right way is something like this:

mkdir cygwin-out
cd cygwin-out
/usr/src/cygwin-1.3.3-2/configure --srcdir=/usr/src/cygwin-1.3.3-2
make

In my own defense I think the README file in /usr/src/cygwin* should make
this explicit. Anyways, the make works like a charm now.

Sorry for wasting your time,
Kevin
