Okay, the .la is just the libtool version of an .a file. That's all fine and good.

This is your problem. make is invoking an implicit rule for makedatprog, rather than the one specified by the Makefile which contains all the required libs. This happens when the Makefile doesn't use $(EXEEXT) for names of executables. It doesn't matter under linux because binares have no extensions but it's required for Cygwin. You probably need to change Makefile.am to
EXTRA_PROGRAMS=makedatprog$(EXEEXT)
...and then autoreconf to regenerate all the files. There may be other cases where a binary name is referenced without $(EXEEXT) that you will have to correct. You should take this up on the courier list though.
I started with a new source tree, removed AC_PROG_SYSCONFTOOL from configure.in (otherwise autoreconf fails as it is not defined anywhere, maybe I shouldn't do this, but if I don't remove it is just throws up a warning when running configure).
Fixed makedat/Makefile.am to look like:
-----
# $Id: Makefile.am,v 1.5 2004/09/08 01:27:34 mrsam Exp $ # # Copyright 1998 - 2004 Double Precision, Inc. See COPYING for # distribution information.
AUTOMAKE = srcdir=${srcdir} @SHELL@ ${srcdir}/../automake.fix @AUTOMAKE@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@
EXTRA_PROGRAMS=makedatprog$(EXEEXT)
makedatprog_SOURCES=makedatprog.c [EMAIL PROTECTED]@ [EMAIL PROTECTED]@ @LIBGDBM@ @LIBDB@
-----
Then I ran the following commands:
-----
for file in $(ls -l | grep ^d | cut -c45- | grep -v cache) do cd $file touch AUTHORS touch ChangeLog touch NEWS touch README aclocal cd .. done; autoreconf --install --force --verbose
./configure --without-authldap
make
-----
But the result is still the same makedat fails exactly the same, what am I doing wrong.
Sorry for this long drawn out problem.
