octave 2.9.13 compile from source with a minor glitch
at least on latest cygwin snapshot.
I just undefined GETTIMEOFDAY_NO_TZ on config.h
before runnning "make", as configure made wrong
assumption about it. Probably it is not a issue in
cygwin 1.5.24.
I just completed the test but I have no clue
if the failures are octave owns or are due
to something on cygwin.
"Summary:
PASS 3447
FAIL 149
There were 3 expected failures (see fntests.log for
details)."
Have someone any info ?
By the way LD_PRELOAD (library pre-load)
seems to not work on octave-cygwin
so before running "make check"
I copied the dll's on /usr/loc/bin
and commented LD_PRELOAD assignments in run-octave

Marco
