Hi!
Some while ago now, i did the necessary bits to build and use bash
successfully on interix (3.5/5.2/6.0). the patches can be found (in the
order i applied them) at [1] and [2]. additionally i had to do this to
make it work right:
146 if [[ ${CHOST} == *-interix* ]]; then
147 export ac_cv_header_inttypes_h=no
148 export gt_cv_header_inttypes_h=no
149 export jm_ac_cv_header_inttypes_h=no
150
151 # argh... something doomed this test on windows ... ???
152 export bash_cv_type_intmax_t=yes
153 export bash_cv_type_uintmax_t=yes
154 fi
see also the gentoo-prefix ebuild for the complete build instructions
used by me (or better: us :)) at [3]
