[Mono-dev] mono from git will not build on cygwin 32

Wed Sep 4 22:36:03 UTC 2013

After ./autogen.sh ...

I get:

Running ./configure --enable-maintainer-mode --enable-compile-warnings
--host=i686-pc-mingw32 --profile=/cygdrive/c/mono ...
configure: error: unrecognized option: `--profile=/cygdrive/c/mono'
Try `./configure --help' for more information
