Hi Mark, Thank you. A little while ago I sent an email off to libtool because the actual command name was not set into a variable. The command that failed was:
$to_tool_file_cmd "$1" and the command trace leading up to it was: > >lt-func_mode_compile> func_to_tool_file alloc.c func_convert_file_msys_to_w32 > >lt-func_to_tool_file> set -x > >lt-func_to_tool_file> case ,$2, in > >lt-func_to_tool_file> alloc.c > ./libtool: line 2088: ./alloc.c: Permission denied (where PS4 has been set to: '>lt-$FUNCNAME> ') $to_tool_file_cmd should be a shell function that converts "alloc.c" into a host file name appropriate for the transform tool. In other words, a lot of rigmarole for converting "alloc.c" into "alloc.c".
