Thanks for reporting the problem. It's on gnulib's side. I installed the following patch, which solves the immediate issue, at least for my test case. It'd be nice if someone with expertise in Cygwin/mingw/whatever would think through the implications. close: use gl_REPLACE_FCLOSE only if defined * m4/close.m4 (gl_REPLACE_CLOSE): Use gl_REPLACE_FCLOSE only if it is defined. The close module doesn't depend on the fclose module any more, so gl_REPLACE_CLOSE's existence cannot be assumed. See <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2011-07/msg00392.html>. I reproduced the problem with "./gnulib-tool --test close sys_socket". diff --git a/m4/close.m4 b/m4/close.m4 index fc13138..0d8f67a 100644 --- a/m4/close.m4 +++ b/m4/close.m4 @@ -1,4 +1,4 @@ -# close.m4 serial 5 +# close.m4 serial 6 dnl Copyright (C) 2008-2011 Free Software Foundation, Inc. dnl This file is free software; the Free Software Foundation dnl gives unlimited permission to copy and/or distribute it, @@ -22,5 +22,5 @@ AC_DEFUN([gl_REPLACE_CLOSE], AC_REQUIRE([gl_UNISTD_H_DEFAULTS]) REPLACE_CLOSE=1 AC_LIBOBJ([close]) - gl_REPLACE_FCLOSE + m4_ifdef([gl_REPLACE_FCLOSE], [gl_REPLACE_FCLOSE]) ])
