Hi,
We had some problems with getting our Coin project compiled on Cygwin,
which we traced back to some "^M"-characters that weren't removed from
directory- and file-names when the dependeny tracking files were about
to be created at the end of the config.status run.
The following patch made the configure script work, but one should
probably find out how the ^M characters were introduced and fix it on
that side...
