I could not build on cygwin until I installed automake 1.6. I tried to install autoconf 2.53 or 2.54 and could not do it for some reason, so I am still running autoconf 2.52. This seems to require that I get in and take the continuation symbols out of the configure.ac files. I can build the stable cvs versions of simgear and flightgear now, but the devel version of simgear does not build, failing as follows:
