- Authentication-results: sourceware.org; auth=none
When trying to compile smake on cygwin x86 it fails at the step of checking for malloc:
"Checking if we may not define our own malloc()..."
And it stalls there consuming some cpu. The developer suggests it's a cygwin bug that was introduced recently. The steps to reproduce it are:
- Download smake from https://sourceforge.net/projects/s-make/files/latest/download
- Extract, cd into the folder and make
