Oh it is definitely a combination of the M4 macro and the Cygwin header files. "What is broken" is a philosophical question, it may be individually they all work as expected in the environments they were designed and tested for. Either way it is a platform I undertook to support, so I'll "fix" GNU Chess to work even if it involves something that says "if Cygwin versions >x and <y skip this bit because Cygwin changed in inexplicable fashion" ;) What I don't undertake to support is old versions of Cygwin, so don't expect a backward compatible fix, people who compile source should be prepared to get upto date with the tools. I've already hacked around a bit with the build procedure in CVS, so it may be that the CVS head version doesn't have these problems, I will test today. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQE/JPxfGFXfHI9FVgYRAoKCAKCISUuOACIPWAV18sAyAyfhy6aFKwCePEPj Mm8jd7+gl7Y1kcS5CVSBYho= =k5z3 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
