who's testing autoconf on cygwin?  (I looked at autoconf on dgjpp a few
weeks ago, but decided that it was intrinsically incapable of making the
tests that I was interested in -- we could indeed make additional DOS-oriented
tests, however -- though since no one's actively developing for that
combination, I'd just as soon pursue this after a release).
