ino_t and d_ino now a thing again?

ino_t and d_ino now a thing again?

[Lloyd Wood via cygwin]

Hi,

on attempting to build Geomview 1.9.5 on current updated
Cygwin, configure fails oddly:

./configure
[..]
checking for time_t... yes 
checking size of dev_t... 4 
checking size of ino_t... configure: error: in `/home/lloyd/savi/geomview-1.9.5': 
configure: error: cannot compute sizeof (ino_t) 
See `config.log' for more details 

lloyd@box ~/savi/geomview-1.9.5 
$ tail config.log 
#define HAVE__BOOL 1 
#define HAVE_STDBOOL_H 1 
#define TIME_WITH_SYS_TIME 1 
#define HAVE_M_PI 1 
#define HAVE_DEV_T 1 
#define HAVE_INO_T 1 
#define HAVE_TIME_T 1 
#define SIZEOF_DEV_T 4 

configure: exit 77 


If HAVE_INO_T is 1, getting sizeof should be a non-problem.

Is this a reoccurrence of the 2006 d_ino problems that were an issue for Cygwin
1.5.19, and discussed with Eric Blake?

thanks and regards

check the exact reason of the failed test in the config.log .
I have similar issue and it is due to the antivirus locking the test
file too long.
