Followup to Re: Unable to build cygwin from cvs sources

[John Paulson]

After some email with Earnie Boyd (earnie_boyd@yahoo.com),
I was successful in building from cvs.  I did as he suggested:

>In the parent of src
>mkdir bld
>cd bld
>../src/configure --prefix=/usr
>make

and the build succeeded.  My question is, how do we fix
the cygwin ( http://sourceware.cygnus.com/cygwin/cvs.html )
web page, where the instructions are:

>bash$ cvs login
>(Logging in to anoncvs@anoncvs.cygnus.com)
>CVS password: anoncvs
>bash$ cvs checkout winsup

and then I did the usual build thing, which was to

     cd src
     ./configure
     make

which produced the original problems with "install-sh not found".
