Apparently MIME inline attachments + gmane + ezmlm isn't a good combination. There was an explanation ;) In short, the grep + cut doesn't quite work like it used to because there is a trailing period. The case glob (which is not a POSIX regex under the Bourne shell, right?) matches "x2.61." as well as "x2.60", which is what we want. Either way the whole thing isn't a robust check, autoconf's manual doesn't make any claims to insert that particular string. -- Dean -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
