I'm looking into that. First thing, your testsuite uncovered a bug in
the latest fnmatch in the C locale. Comparing pointers instead of
comparing characters was never a good idea for pattern matching...
When I'm done I hope that our 3.5 fnmatch won't be overridden by the
gnulib version :}
I can't easily install a Cygwin 3.5.0 snapshot. If one of you would like to
help, here's how to:
1. Create an environment for working with a Cygwin 3.5.0 snapshot (from
March 2023 or newer).
2. wget https://haible.de/bruno/gnu/testdir-fnmatch.tar.gz
3. tar xfz testdir-fnmatch.tar.gz
4. cd testdir-fnmatch-posix
./configure 2>&1 | tee log1
make
make check
I fixed the above problem and the POSIX check now works fine:
grep fnmatch log1
checking for fnmatch.h... yes
checking for fnmatch... yes
checking for working POSIX fnmatch... yes
I also extraced the fnmatch configure testcase and ran it manually.
It returns 0 now. But:
grep REPLACE_FNMATCH config.status
S["REPLACE_FNMATCH"]="1"
Looks like the reason is that we don't have a uchar.h file? Seems
like this is of interest for AIX, but why should this be of
interest for fnmatch on other systems?
It was added in C99 TR19769, integrated in C/++11, available in libicu-devel:
