Hello!

The errors i obtain are as follows:
/tmp/lcl/tmp/cygwin/cygwin-snapshot-20130731-1/winsup/c++wrap: line 2:
use: command not found

 Yesterday i have successfully compiled CVS version of cygwin.

 Your symptoms looks like another problem, which i attempted to
address by another patch, posted alongside this one
(no-dos-paths-on-cygwin). The problem is by default make's configure
thinks that it should use DOS-style paths by default. Since Cygwin by
itself is a POSIX environment, which uses POSIX paths, this screws up
badly in functions which deal with absolute paths. You can find the
detailed description in this message:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-make/2013-07/msg00038.html .
Perhaps you (and someone else ? Corinna ? ) can join the discussion
and help me to convince GNU people that these modifications are good
and safe.
 You can either apply this patch before running configure (and don't
forget to recreate it with autoconf, of course), or bypass the check
using config.cache trick:
--- cut ---
echo "ac_cv_dos_paths=no" > config.cache
./configure --cache-file=config.cache
--- cut ---


I did
sed -i -e 's/__CYGWIN__/__NOEXIST20130801__/' make-3.99.90/configure
as suggested in http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-make/2013-07/msg00020.html
with no improvement for the compilation of cygwin-20130731 (same error
messages). Perhaps i should try with make-3.82.90-1...

By the way, where are the DOS paths when we talk about c++wrap?
