Hi Michael,

As a side note: when running the configure script in cygwin either for

Though my machine is quite old, the script runs in a decent time except
that test. I really think that this is the same problem as with the DNS
resolver.
I doubt this since AFAICT configure doesnt make any tests over the network ...
but: this test is by far really the slowest of all configure tests;
I've just tested on an older box (old Cygwin on W2K3r2, P4 2.8GHz 2GB RAM) and this test took over 180 seconds; the whole configure run took:

time ./configure
[snip]
real    22m27.235s
user    0m46.476s
sys     2m41.462s

then I just tested on a more modern box (recent SuSE Linux, AMD Phenom II X4 965 8GB RAM) and even there this test took ~20 seconds where all other tests took only fracts of seconds - so here the recvfrom test took ~35% of the whole time configure needed:

time ./configure
[snip]
real    0m58.441s
user    0m26.424s
sys     0m24.257s

Gün.
