That's not the point: I have no problem on my cybwin developement 
machine: the problem is that ./configure-generated Makefile tries to 
call the autotools on each different machine, even in no-one changed 
configure.in or Makefile.am

The client machine shouldn't need autotools or the know-how to use them, 
right?
