[Mono-dev] Win32 build errors (recent change)

Fri Jun 15 23:15:01 UTC 2012

I found one error seems to be that HAVE_SYS_TIME_H (or something spelled
similarly) is not being defined in cygwin in the root configure script,
even though if i look in /usr/include/sys there is a time.h file

If i look at the config.log in eglib, for example though, which is
different than the root one, the SYS_TIME_H thing is defined.

I'm going to try to trace this one down myself, but if someone wants to
chime in who knows more about configure scripts let me know.
