Re: [Mxflib-developers] Next release this weekend

[Stuart C. <st...@rd...>]

Unfortunately, Cygwin allows a choice of Unix or DOS style line endings
when you install it.  Choosing DOS CRLF line endings can cause
interoperability problems with source packages using autoconf/automake
since although GCC can cope with either line-endings, some of the shell
commands used in autoconf may be sensitive to line-endings.

Also, I committed a change to bootstrap.sh to make it work reliably with
the limited /bin/sh shell installed by default by Cygwin (fixes the
"line 14" error).
