Wow, cool! At last!
Installed and tested it. I believe i should be able to at least run C compiler in this environment.
And take one small bug report. :) I wanted to port my spawn patch for 'make' and noticed that make is a cygport now. However looks like cygport is buggy a bit. 'cygport make prep' ends up in:
--- cut ---
*** ERROR: SRC_DIR is not correctly defined
--- cut ---
I'm not really familiar with cygport, however after studyin --debug output i managed to work around it by adding 'SRC_DIR=" make-3.82.90"' to make.cygport. For some reason cygport seems to ignore VERSION and tries to extract $PV from .cygport file's name. Perhaps renaming it to 'make-3.82.90.cygport' would also work, i have not tested.
And also, for some reason, supplied patch was not applied automatically. I had to do it manually after 'prep'.
Kind regards.
