Re: Beta 2 build failure using Cygwin/XP

Would you email me your config.log privately? I need to see why the
test for HAVE_INT_TIMEZONE is failing on Cygwin. The relivant configure
test is:

# PGAC_VAR_INT_TIMEZONE
# ---------------------
# Check if the global variable `timezone' exists. If so, define
# HAVE_INT_TIMEZONE.
AC_DEFUN([PGAC_VAR_INT_TIMEZONE],
[AC_CACHE_CHECK(for int timezone, pgac_cv_var_int_timezone,
[AC_TRY_LINK([#include <time.h>
int res;],
[#ifndef __CYGWIN__
res = timezone / 60;
#else
res = _timezone / 60;
#endif],
[pgac_cv_var_int_timezone=yes],
[pgac_cv_var_int_timezone=no])])
if test x"$pgac_cv_var_int_timezone" = xyes ; then
AC_DEFINE(HAVE_INT_TIMEZONE,, [Define to 1 if you have the global
variable 'int timezone'.])
fi])# PGAC_VAR_INT_TIMEZONE

You should have this version of the code in config/c-library.m4.
