I, too, am having problems with perl-5.8.0 and autoheader.  When perl
gets ready to evaluate one of the autoheader perl scripts, it craps
out.  I'm running the same cygwin dll as Scott, except I'm on WinME. 
However, the error I get it doesn't seem like a rebase problem:


assertion "!wait_sig_inited" failed: file
"../../../../src/winsup/cygwin/sigproc.cc", line 656
...
[Repeated 100+ times]

18172853 [main] perl 627215 sync_with_child: child -901351(0x1A4)

18172888 [main] perl 627215 sync_with_child: *** child state child

Cheers,
Nicholas
