Because of how old this bug is, and since I can't attempt to reproduce it myself, I'm going to close it on the assumption that it's been fixed somehow by now.

Please feel free to reopen if you can still reproduce it with the current autoconf development trunk and current versions of cygwin, automake, and GNU Make.  Step-by-step instructions for reproducing the problem, starting from a fresh installation of some specific version of Windows with no toolchain whatsoever, would be appreciated.

This bug report is very old and I do not have the appropriate environment in which to attempt to reproduce it.  Is it still reproducible with the current autoconf development trunk and current versions of cygwin, automake, and GNU Make?
