I'm curious, how did you get "*-*-msys*" into $host? I thought MSYS was autodetected as *-*-mingw* by config.guess. Is that not always the case?
Same wonderings here. Unless someone has changed the operation of standard config.guess.
(But I do believe that MSYS is a better basis for a name for $host than MinGW, since I have understood it as MSYS being the environment and MinGW the compiler/toolchain. But that's a bit late to change IMHO.)
Yes, it would likely break things other than libtool. I am sure that it would break certain other things in the package I maintain.
Regarding the suggestion to remove .exe from cwrapper, that can't be 100% right as $RM $cwrapper on the line following your change will then not remove the exe-file (as intended?).
Cygwin and MSYS both use a .exe-based wrapper, which is different than for Unix platforms (even though Unix could use it). I am not sure why the extension should be removed. It seems like that would break something since the bare name without the extension is the formal target name.
