I found that with cygwin b19, the stuff in config.guess doesn't work,
and that the final case should be something like:
i*86:CYGWIN32*:*:*)
echo i386-unknown-win32/cygnus
exit 0 ;;
Having got past that point, I have various compilation problems, though.
The first is related to the cygwin include file windows32/Sockets.h,
which doesn't work if included after sys/time.h because of redefinition
of 'struct timeval' (I fixed by putting '#ifndef _SYS_TIME_H_' around
the declaration in Sockets.h)
I'm now at a similar error compiling InetAddressImpl.c, and haven't had
time to go further....
Hope this helps,
Stan
