look here?
The problem is, as a fork of GMP, it too tries to be too clever with
libtool in an attempt to shorten configure times by avoiding the CXX/F77
checks. Those hacks are not only unnecessary with libtool 2.x, they are
incompatible with it.
Run the following to remove the offending 25 lines of configure:
sed -i -e '/# Enable CXX/,/AC_PROVIDE/d' configure.in
Then you still need to teach configure.in about Cygwin wrt -f
win32/win64 and which asm sources to use before running (cyg)autoreconf.
