I just did a complete re-install of the latest version of cygwin (1.5.14-1),
and come across the following problem: when prepping a source for compilation,
invoking:

./configure

would stop at seemingly random places. However, running:

bash ./configure

worked much better. It still didn't complete the entire script because the
configure script has internal references to /bin/sh. Symlinking sh -> bash
seems to fix all the problems.

It's been so long since I've done a re-install of cygwin, so I don't know
if this is a known problem or not. In any case, I can furnish more details
if anyone needs them.

ER
