Hi everyone,
I am trying to get something ready for eventual contribution in to 
sumatra, and I would like to check my code works on Windows.

This is the first time I am building the JDK on Windows using the new build.

I have installed the complete latest cygwin, but the configure does not 
like the gmake in cygwin. This is Windows 7 enterprise SP1 and I .

My error output is shown below.

Does anyone know the fix for this or what else needs to be installed?

I have set up the system like I was otherwise using to build just 
hotspot (not the whole JDK) a few months ago with Windows SDK 7.1.

I'll keep searching in the build-dev list but I have not found anything yet.
Thanks for any advice,
Eric
