problem compiling under cygwin

[Stan Pinte]

hello,

the following in the ./configure script poses me a problem:

echo "$as_me:$LINENO: checking how to build block programs" >&5
echo $ECHO_N "checking how to build block programs... $ECHO_C" >&6
case $host_os in
linux-gnu*)
  GOSSIP_BLOCK_LDFLAGS="-shared -export-dynamic";;
freebsdelf*)
  GOSSIP_BLOCK_LDFLAGS="-shared -export-dynamic";;
solaris*)
  GOSSIP_BLOCK_LDFLAGS="-G -export-dynamic";;
*)
  GOSSIP_BLOCK_LDFLAGS="unknown";;
esac
if test "$GOSSIP_BLOCK_LDFLAGS" = unknown; then
  echo "$as_me:$LINENO: result: no way" >&5
echo "${ECHO_T}no way" >&6
  { { echo "$as_me:$LINENO: error: I don't know how to build block 
programs on \
$host_os." >&5
echo "$as_me: error: I don't know how to build block programs on 
$host_os." >&2\
;}
   { (exit 1); exit 1; }; }
else
  echo "$as_me:$LINENO: result: $GOSSIP_BLOCK_LDFLAGS" >&5
echo "${ECHO_T}$GOSSIP_BLOCK_LDFLAGS" >&6
fi

checking how to build block programs... no way
configure: error: I don't know how to build block programs on cygwin.

I added the line

cygwin*)
  GOSSIP_BLOCK_LDFLAGS="-shared -export-dynamic";;

and now the ./configure is OK.

Stan.

Shall I send you a diff?
