Trunk build problems

[Nick Kelsey]

Hi guys,

I think its time for a gripe as the trunk has been going downhill rapidly
over the last week or so.

<gripe>

Things I have noticed over the last week:

- Configure in src doesn't do any sub directories any more (linux or
cygwin).

- Under cygwin, libtermcap attempts to be build (which doesn't exist). This
causes a circular make problem as it can't change into the directory so does
a make in src again.

- If you do an incremental make in src it reconfigures a number of
directories *every time* (both linux and cygwin).

- Readline doesn't link under cygwin.

My snapshot from about 2 weeks ago works fine - these are all new problems.

I am interested if these are known problems and under active investigation.

</gripe>

Thanks

Nick
