Aargh....

please do a sh -x ./configure --prefix=/usr >autoconf.log

To be honest, I have no idea at the moment what your problem is. 

Are you using cygwin from latest or b20 ?

I saw that you configured from //e/ which means that you are using
textmode (Cygwin's default for drives)

could you please make sure that / is mounted binary amd then create a
directory test and unpack autoconf to this dir.

Perhaps it works on a binary mount. Do this test before doing the sh
-x thing.

May the force be with you,

Michael Ring
