(quoting what I already mentioned to others):

The problem seems to be "return $ac_retval". So if you comment those
few out, it obviously won't work, but at least it won't crash. Don't
ask me why, I dunno. And since the return values are needed, without
this working it doesn't find a valid CPP, most header files (!), etc.
But hey, at least we know how to isolate it, mostly. Hopefully that
was the hardest part.   :-P

P.S. If anybody wants to test, here's latest ZILE sources (and I can
send my lame-o tweaks if needed). Basically, I'm just trying to get "./
configure" to not crash (comment out all "return $ac...") and then
eventually actually work (not done, might need patching Bash). I
actually just used Cygwin's old AutoConf 2.63 (grrr, stupid setup.exe
is hard to tell to get an older version) to regenerate it as a
temporary workaround. But obviously that's not an ideal solution
looking forward. Any hints are highly appreciated. (And no, DJGPP's
2.59 doesn't work, no flock support, among other issues.)
