Re: Bug: XTerm scrollbar issue

I note that the list of platforms for which --enable-narrowproto is the default in xterm's aclocal.m4 CF_ENABLE_NARROWPROTO macro (which includes cygwin) doesn't match the list of platforms which default to narrow prototypes in xproto (which doesn't include cygwin). This makes me wonder if the cygwin platform default managed to get changed during modularization...

modularization broke portabililty some time ago, by discarding the customizations embedded in the imake configurations. xterm's configure script only has what was in the imake configuration, so presumably when cygwin stopped relying on that, it broke here.
