'configure' is a shell-script included in the distribution, not a separate utility. But hmake certainly depends on having a Bourne-compatible shell, both for installation and execution.
Ah, yes, I think I ran into a similar problem previously, and also couldn't run under Cygwin.
Having said all this, Isaac Jones' Library Infrastructure Project is actively seeking to turn hmake into a Haskell-only library with a readily-accessible API, so the prospects of being able to use it natively on Windows will increase as that project matures.
Indeed! My reason for looking into hmake is because I've been digging into LIP, and hmake seems to be a key component of the strategy for LIP. If I come to understand the issues, maybe I can help in some small way.
