ChangeLog:

2001-03-12  Edward M. Lee  <address@hidden>

        * progs.am: install patch for Cygwin. The cygwin /usr/bin/install
        program has the following behavior for install -c SRC DST:

        Scenario 1: "src.exe" exists and "src" does not:
        1) if SRC=src.exe and DST=dst.exe, then src.exe gets installed as
        dst.exe correctly.
        2) if SRC=src and DST=dst, then src.exe gets installed as dst.exe.
        3) if SRC=src.exe and DST=dst, then src.exe gets installed as dst.
        4) if SRC=src and DST=dst.exe, then src.exe gets installed as
        dst.exe.exe

        Scenario 2: "src" exists and "src.exe" does not:
        1) if SRC=src.exe and DST=dst.exe, install aborts with error
        2) if SRC=src and DST=dst, then src gets installed as dst
        3) if SRC=src.exe and DST=dst, install aborts with error
        4) if SRC=src and DST=dst.exe, then src gets installed as dst.exe

        Scenario 3: "src.exe" and "src" exists:
        1) if SRC=src.exe and DST=dst.exe, src.exe gets installed as dst.exe
        2) if SRC=src and DST=dst, then src gets installed as dst
        3) if SRC=src.exe and DST=dst, then src.exe gets installed as dst
        4) if SRC=src and DST=dst.exe, then src gets installed as dst.exe

        Modify output rule to synchronize .exe for src and dst in Scenario
        1, enforcing cases 1) and 2).
