Recently (today) I installed the current version of Cygwin from
    mirrors.kernel.org
Now I am having trouble using the autoconf and automake tools under cygwin.
To be specific, In response to the command
    autoconf
I get the error message
    Can't locate object method "path" via package "Request" at
    /usr/autotool/devel/share/autoconf/Autom4te/C4che.pm
    line 69, <GEN1> line 214.
I get a similar error message in response to the aclocal and autoheader 
commands.

Do you have any suggestions as to how I should proceed to resolve this 
problem ?
