Re: Short report Cygwin Octave-2.9.13

[David Bateman]

Hi Tatsuro,

Sure if you want to maintain a cygwin binary I see no issue. However
does the "--disable-sjlj-exceptions" flag make it incompatible with a
standard cygwin install? I believe it does and in that case you'd
probably have to distribute a standalone package like the one on
octave-forge. Its probably also an idea to include the compiler in this
case as asking the users to recompile the gnu compiler suite with the
"--disable-sjlj-exceptions" to be able to compile oct-files might be
asking too much...

If you do this, I think it would be a good idea to host the binary on
octave-forge..

Cheers
David
