Re: Building a cygwin special version of make?

[Johan Bezem]

Hi Angel,

first, cygwin uses its own version of GNU make, which is not supported through 
this mailing list.

Having said that:
Take a standard GNU make 3.80, compare that to the cygwin version 3.80, and 
incorporate all differences into your 3.81beta3-for-cygwin and make sure to 
compile with the cygwin-based tools. That worked for me once (not for 
3.81beta3, didn't have the need yet).

Regards,

Johan
