Can't build egcs-20000417 with cygwin-1.1.0

[Tim Prince]

As you may have noticed, I was able to build 
egcs-20000417 under cygwin-1.1.0 with exactly the same minor patches as under 
last summer's cygwin.  Now that Chuck Wilson has corrected texinfo, it may 
even be possible to install the .info files, if you can get around all the 
problems with mixtures of line termination styles in the .texi files.  
However, with the increasing frequency of ICE's in the cygwin snapshots, which 
are more than enough to prevent running testsuite on g++, these attempts to use 
snapshot versions are looking less worth while.  I suspect that many of the 
additional testsuite failures found with the new cygwin dejagnu are for 
real.

  I wonder if there might be a chance of being able 
  to build egcs using cygwin-1.1.0 
  in the near future? I know that it has not been 
  possible during the egcs evolution
  before. But, perhaps the time has come to 
  incorporate patches to the egcs
  development branch to make it build under cygwin-1.1.0?
