Again, check that your dirname and sed are MSYS programs. Maybe also expr, and pwd -- they are all involved in the configure script fragment that calculates the source directory. > So, if it is required to invoke "msysconfig.sh" with a > windows-absolute path It is not required, I invoke the configure script using relative file names all the time, and it works as expected. > Aside from that, unfortunately the bootstrap didn't complete > successfully this time either.
