[Alex and I followed up on this off-list. I'm reporting back on-list for
archival purposes...]
It turns out that Alex was using the new(?) (which is to say, I hadn't
encountered it before and it had a beta label) 64-bit version of cygwin.
When I install 64-bit cygwin, I ran into the same error at compiler build
time. I didn't pursue the issue at this time, hoping that the beta label
meant that I could blame it on 64-bit cygwin rather than Chapel.
Switching to 32-bit cygwin (which is what we've traditionally used), Alex
had better luck, though still issues. His build of the compiler was
clean, but executing it generated the following messages (related to
generating the /tmp directory for the compiler and querying the
environment):
sh: /tmp/chpl-Alex: Is a directory
error: running $CHPL_HOME/util/chplenv/platform --host
I couldn't reproduce this in my copy, upgraded Cygwin, but still can't
reproduce. Meanwhile, Alex has switched to Linux and is having better
luck (not surprisingly), so I'm going to shelve this for now until someone
else runs into it.
