Sounds like you didn't run autoreconf (which would have been done
automatically via the supported mechanism).
I have added the autoreconf step to the Emerge scripts.
Only one conflicts with a Gentoo patches, which I had to disable.
Works fine now. Solved all problems from that corner.

Cygport is rather similar to emerge/ebuild already. You might find it
worthwhile to give it a look.
I am aware of this. I want come to a solution, that builds me from
sources on any of Windows, Mac and Linux. One to rule them all. I did
only find Gentoo Prefix to be able to do this.

Right. I applied it the traditional way.
Ah, you have to understand this about cygport patches: they only contain
patches for the source files, not the autogenerated ones. So they have
patches for e.g. Makefile.am, configure.ac; but not for configure or even
Makefile.in. It's vitally

Coreutils tends to be an exception, because it is so core to the system.
Other tools that I also maintain, like m4 or findutils, port with 0
patches.
Thank you. That gives me back some optimism.
