I would also strongly favor option 2, since gnulib recently documented that it will only target Interix with suacomp installed: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2011-05/msg00368.html In other words, suacomp is not deemed a burden for that platform, and Interix without suacomp is unsupported by the very gnulib code you are trying to use to work around Interix deficiencies. -- Eric Blake ebl...@redhat.com +1-801-349-2682 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
