After having no luck with my local machine having XP and some patches installed locally I switched to our VmWare server and grabbed a copy of the pure XP master without any patches. Then I installed current CygWin from scratch and what a wonder - it works now. So now I am not sure whether my CygWin setup is broken (less probabilistic) or whether my Win XP setup is broken (more probabilistic). > Changing /bin/sh to /bin/bash at the start of the configure script gets me > slightly further.
