windows: sporadic configure errors in cygwin

[Thomas Stüfe]

Hi all,

when building OpenJDK 10/hs on Windows, I get sporadic configure errors.
Usually one of two things, either:

configure: The tested number of bits in the target (0) differs from the
number of bits expected to be found in the target (32).

or the endianness test failing.

Most of the time, just retrying the configure run works.

I have the feeling this happens mostly when running several builds in
parallel. I am currently using 32bit cygwin.

Does anyone see similar errors or maybe have a solution?

Best Regards, Thomas
