[Mono-list] Problems building mono on cygwin

Dietmar,

I have these versions:
automake: 1.5
autoconf: 2.52

I found the wrapper directory.  I didn't notice there was another mono
directory under mono.  Confusing, no?

Anyway, I changed the Makefile.am there on the line with CLEANFILES to just
use '=' instead of '+=' as the error message indicates.  That got me further
along.  Now I get this output:
--------------------------------------------------------
processing .
Running libtoolize...
You should update your `aclocal.m4' by running aclocal.
Running aclocal  ...
Running autoheader...
autoheader: config.h.in is unchanged
Running automake --gnu  ...
Running autoconf ...
processing ./libffi
Running aclocal  ...
Running autoheader...
autoheader: fficonfig.h.in is unchanged
Running automake --gnu  ...
automake: Makefile.am: Assembler source seen but `AS' not defined in
`configure.in'
automake: Makefile.am: Assembler source seen but `ASFLAGS' not defined in
`configure.in'
**Error**: automake failed.
--------------------------------------------------------

Sorry, I don't have a clue about automake and autoconf, but it seems like
I'm going to :).  Any more pointers?

Thanks,
Nick
