Nowadays, it is not possible to make the autconf2.1 package from "src"
because the errors written in previous emails.
I don't know if the fault is caused by a regression into cygport or it
is needed to fix the "src" package of autconf2.1 for supporting a new
syntax or something like that. Unfortunately, the main problem is that
running the cygport script for autoconf 2.1 still hangs, so perhaps it
would be useful to fix it, in one way or another one.
Thank you very much for your time and your reply.

Carlo Bramini.
