Summary: Snapshot 6596 giving configure error on cygwin

Initial Comment:
Hi All,

I am trying to build SDCC (snapshot - 6596) on cygwin. For this, I have downloaded the snapshot of src "sdcc-src-20110619-6596.tar.bz2".

Procedure followed for configuring & make:
===============================
Decompressed and extracted source using bzip2 and tar xvf commands respectively. Later, as per 2.4.4 sec in sdccman.pdf, I am using the script sdcc/support/scripts/sdcc_cygwin_mingw32 for configuring and further build. I am running the script from the sdcc directory. However, I am encourntering an error =>  "configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables".

After observing the config.log, I suspect the error may be due to "-mno-cygwin" flag used with gcc compiler. gcc gives the following message: 
"gcc: The -mno-cygwin flag has been removed; use a mingw-targeted cross-compiler". 

I am herewith attaching the config.log for your reference & debugging.

Best Regards,
Raghunath Lolur.
