Compiling Kaffe with Cygwin on NT 4.0

This is not a kaffe problem, but a problem with your cygwin installation.
It doesn't find /bin/sh, so configure aborts with that cryptic, but I
think unix-compatible msg.
Having installed it myself, I can report that you need to go in the
registry and fix up the mount table entry that makes /bin point to
C:\cygnus\cygwin\bin, because that's not where the /bin stuff is.
Change the entry to point to where it really is -- like
C:\cygnus\cygwin-b20\h-i586-cygwin32\bin.
Type "mount" to see whether your mount table is correct; ls -l /bin/sh
should also check whether you have a sh in /bin there.
