aclocal error message (cygwin, WinXP) help

[martinw]

Hi,

Just starting out looking at autotools, I have fallen at the first
hurdle!
Using cygwin under WinXP.

When I type aclocal I get thje following error message:

CYGWIN_NT-5.1 % aclocal
autom4te-2.61: cannot create C:\WINDOWStemp/am4t7669.5964: No such
file or directory
 at /usr/bin/autom4te-2.61 line 940
aclocal-1.10: autom4te failed with exit status: 1

My configure.in:
AC_PREREQ(2.59)

AC_INIT([test1], [0.1], [me@myaddress.org])

AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE([1.9 foreign])

AC_PROG_CC

AC_CONFIG_FILES([Makefile])
AC_OUTPUT

My Makefile.am:
bin_PROGRAMS = test1
test1_SOURCES = main.c


Umm - can anybpody help?
