Hello,

I'm trying to update zsh package to its latest version 5.8. Version
5.5.1-1 still uses custom build shell script. So I migrated to use
cygport. Attached files are .cygport file and patches. I blieve all
customizations and modifications of 5.5.1-1 are included. But
currently there is one problem.

On 64bit console 'cygport zsh.cygport all' completes successfully. But
on 32bit console it fails with configure error as following.

According to config.log configure script is executed with following options.

/cygdrive/c/Users/yasu/Work/Cygwin/zsh/zsh.cygwin/zsh-5.8-1.i686/src/zsh-5.8/configure --srcdir=/cygdrive/c/Users/yasu/Work/Cygwin/zsh/zsh.cygwin/zsh-5.8-1.i686/src/zsh-5.8 --prefix=/usr --exec-prefix=/usr --localstatedir=/var --sysconfdir=/etc --docdir=/usr/share/doc/zsh --htmldir=/usr/share/doc/zsh/html -C --enable-function-subdirs --enable-gdbm --enable-multibyte --enable-pcre --enable-zsh-secure-free

So I executed it directly from command line. Then it completed without
any error.

Why such difference happens? Does cygconf function do something other
than executing configure script?

Best Regards.
