The autotools are perl scripts, yes. However, if you're feeding a native Windows tool a file path like /foo/bar then it's quite likely to interpret that as switches, no? In other words, expect problems if you use this this tool from an msys environment. The people best placed to help are the mingw/msys people themselves... Angus
