The GNU configure scripts need some minor tweaking to make them run on 
DOS/Windows.  You need to replace "test -f" with "test -x", and you need 
to set PATH_SEPARATOR=: in the environment, otherwise the script won't
find GCC.

This usually means your TMPDIR variable either isn't set or points to a 
non-existent or unwritable directory.  Bash uses temporary files to 
simulate pipes and `command` substitutions.
