[LLVMdev] Trying to compile frontend 4.0 fails on cygwin

[Seth Copen Goldstein]

I sent an earlier email about failing to compile 4.2, I have since tried
4.0 and I get a configure error during make.  

I am running on windows XP SP2
Cygwin is (as reported by uname -a): CYGWIN_NT-5.1 pad7
1.5.25(0.156/4/2) 2007-12-14 19:21 i686 Cygwin
Gcc is: gcc (GCC) 3.4.4 (cygming special, gdc 0.12, using dmd 0.125)
I ran configure, then make.  Make dies with:

checking whether the C compiler works... configure: error: cannot run C
compiled programs.
If you meant to cross compile, use `--host'.

The config.log contains:

This file contains any messages produced by compilers while
running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.
