On Cygwin with gcc, both tests PASS. Good. On MSYS(in MinGW mode) with gcc, ...-exeext SKIPs, because of this: configure:3327: cc -o conftest.exe -g -O2 conftest.c >&5 configure:3327: $? = 0 configure:3328: ./conftest.exe 9>&1 configure:3331: $? = 0 configure:3333: (./conftest.exe 9>&1) | grep ^foobar configure:3336: $? = 1 Good. On MSYS/cl, ...-exeext SKIPs, because of this: configure:3327: /c/Cygwin/home/peda/automake-1.11.2b/lib/compile cl -nologo -o conftest.exe conftest.c >&5 conftest.c conftest.c(11) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'unistd.h': No such file or directory configure:3327: $? = 2 Probably not intended, but perhaps a good thing, because unistd.h will not be available everywhere and lacking it is not should not cause a FAIL in the Automake test suite. So, the patch is good. Thanks for fixing! Cheers, Peter
