It seems that this isn't the case with newer Cygwin. Under Cygwin usr/bin/autoconf is not GNU autoconf - this is stated in its documentation (quote: "THIS IS *NOT* GNU autoconf"). I have the same setup as in the original post: autoconf 2.53-1 - that's the wrapper autoconf-devel 2.52-4 autoconf-stable 2.13-4 The wrapper (which is not the same autoconf as under Linux) use devel (2.52) package by default. This Cygwin wrapper will look for /usr/autotool/devel and /usr/autotool/stable dirs, and will fail if one of the dirs not found, hence autoconf detection in mono/autogen.sh will fail if only one package is installed (either devel or stable). Detection sequence will work however if AC_PREREQ is found in local .in/.ac files - this also mentioned in documentation. It seems that it wasn't a problem before certain version of Cygwin - if I remember correctly it worked as you described - 2.13 used by default and it wasn't necessary to install both packages or specify AC_PREREQ. But with the above setup, default is 2.52. However 2.52 works just fine for me, so it's not a very big problem I think. (I remember though, there was a recommendation on go-mono to use 2.13 because of some problems, is it still true?).
