After general rant to me that I should upgrade from 1.3.x to 1.5.x a finaly started to doing it. What a big disappointment I got when ./configure failed... Can anyone provide me some info about that issue? screen-3.9.15 - its patched by cygwin + my own patch, but configure script (and anything else) is untouched. configure script cannot remove conftest.exe because process is still running.. (how is that possible? its not started in parallaly).. and it doesnt fork aswell. Most funny part is that Im able to do ./configure && make && make install on 1.3.9 or 1.3.10 and screen works perfectly.. (attach/detach/lock/anything). Im upgrading only because I cannot resolve random (not so random, its reproductable) reboots on cygwin 1.3.9 or 1.3.10.
