I thought so - it was your advice that Google turned up to tell me how to fix it :)

1.5.11 (also on XP Pro SP1)

$ uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-5.1 pseudopolis 1.5.11(0.116/4/2) 2004-09-04 23:17 ...

I'll try updating all the Cygwin packages and see where that gets me.

<that didn't take long>

Now it's hanging in configure (and the m4 interpreter was one of the things that 
got updated). *sigh* I need to wake up more before I dig into this.

If you (or anyone else) could check that the unit tests work on Cygwin for you, 
that would make me more certain that this is just a problem with my own Cygwin 
setup, and not related to anything in 2.4c1 that wasn't in 2.4b1.

Cheers,
Nick.
