AC_CYGWIN keeps saying 'no' although I'm running configure from within bash
and using cygwin latest from two days ago (1.1.2). This message seemed
relevant.
Trying to compile a simple program like the following fails... should be
fairly similar to what autoconf is doing by my reading of the macro.
#ifndef __CYGWIN__
#define __CYGWIN__ __CYGWIN32__
#endif
int main(int argc, char **argv) {
return __CYGWIN__;
}
//RTP-CBJONES/...//tmp $ gcc a.c
cpp: unrecognized option `-remap'
cpp: unrecognized option `-remap'
...
gcc-2.95.2
