Yes, I'm aware that foo.exe is not foo, but fileutils-4.1-1 contained code which special-cased this situation, IMO very usefully. What I would like to see is a ChangeLog entry or CVS log message or something that corresponds to and explains the removal of that code. > The current versions of autoconf and automake define and use > EXEEXT=.exe.

The build system in question is not based on autoconf/automake. - Nathan -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
