Can you try:

Just so that I can see what is failing? All of the hackerlab stuff
worked for me.
My quick guess is to make sure $HOME is set, but it should actually be
set by the test script, since it uses a custom $HOME.

This is the bug where /bin/sh (ash) verse /bin/bash, on my cygwin ash does not expand the ~

bash:
$ echo ~
/home/tanner
$ echo ~/
/home/tanner/

ash (aka /bin/sh)
$ echo ~
~
$ echo ~/
~/

../configure --prefix=/usr --with-posix-shell=/bin/bash  fixed the problem

I've seen this error/problem on the mailing list and confirmed an issue with jblack on irc.

Yeah, there are other tests that I believe fail later. So I did the "cd /bin; rm sh; cp bash sh" fix.

I'm glad you got your portion working.
