It seems the patch had been applied. So, I changed line 1353 of
autoconf back to

   *(environ=nenv)="PATH=.";*nenviron=0;diff=argc;    /* start doubling */

and now I get 2 error messages from Windows, about not being able to find
CYGWIN1.DLL, but the script continues and I get an autoconf.h
like this:

/* This file was automagically generated by autoconf */

#define NO_const
#define P(args) ()
#define NO_COMSAT

This is on Windows 98. But as it builds already with your
autoconf.h, I don't think this is a problem.

I mentioned the existence of the executable on the procmail list,
but there was no reaction.
