'Download only' mode is a hack leveraging existing functionality, not a truly separate mode. So it prevents installs... but apparently uninstalls slipped through the gaps. Added as a todo-item to remove the uninstalling, and the ability to choose that (or reinstalls). As for the install phase, I'm not sure if this email was sent before or after I fixed a critical bug in the local-install mode, you may find it's fixed now.

Re: Telneting/ftping to cygwin
I downloaded all of the Cygwin stuff Friday, and went through hell trying to get the inetd stuff to work. Win2k, SP2, had set CYGWIN, PATH, and the registry stuff, rebooted, etc ... Searching the archives showed a lot of folks having the same problems : telnetd would start and end immediately. Running it standalone with debug 'might' work. Well, I am pleased to say that I finaly got it working. It turns out that the server that I downloaded it from had an older release of the inetutils package, 1.3.2-16. Once I located and installed the 1.3.2-17, it worked the 1st time ! One other note : Using the M$ provided telnet from Win2k to another Win2k box with Cygwin will cause double linefeeds when you hit the , like at login.

How do you figure that? "/foo/share/autoconf:" contains only a single
directory. It is not equivalent to "/foo/share/autoconf:."
Anyway, it doesn't really matter -- m4 *always* searches the current
working directory, regardless of the value of ${M4PATH} or the use of -I
options. See 'info m4'.

I don't think it's an issue for M4PATH, either. (OTOH, your *other*
bugreport is a valid concern, and I'm fixing that now...)
