[Gnu-arch-users] arch on cygwin?

[Barak Zalstein]

Hi,

I was trying to build tla-1.1pre4.tar.gz on cygwin and encountered the 
following 
problems:

1. configure is trying to use cc instead of gcc, so it fails because it can't 
generate
executables.
2. after ugly-avoiding the problem (ln -sf gcc.exe to cc.exe, because setting 
CC variable didn't help), make fails because of rm (cannot find .es file).
3. Meanwhile chose make -k.
4. make test goes well for a while but dies here: (probably the build didn't 
complete)
================ unit-file-names tests ================
home...

make: *** [test] Error 2
 (my workaround attempts are described as well). 

I've seen earlier cygwin attempts while searching the archive.
Did anyone address these issues?
