I know, there are all kind of ugly things and side-effect in using CygWin.
The strange thing (to me) is, that mcf5206elite builds without problems.
I assume, there must be a difference in the input-files for auto-xxx
because it's the same environment, and the same script to trigger the build.
Maybe, one of the 'auto-tools experts' (Ralf Corsepius ?) has an idea?
