Re: v2.50 on cygwin fails tests 15 thru 21

| Very impressed with the test suite - very thorough, very user-friendly.

Thanks :)  It's essential that it is user-friendly if we want users to
be maintainers-friendly :)

| Failed tests:
|   15: m4sh.at:12      AS_DIRNAME & AS_DIRNAME_SED
|   16: m4sh.at:63      AS_MKDIR_P
|   17: m4sh.at:95      Negated classes in globbing
|   18: base.at:12      AC_REQUIRE: topological sort
|   19: base.at:53      AC_REQUIRE & AC_DEFUN_ONCE: Require, expand
|   20: base.at:96      AC_REQUIRE & AC_DEFUN_ONCE: Expand, require
|   21: base.at:138     AC_REQUIRE & AC_PROVIDE

This is very bizarre, these tests have nothing in common.  To me, it
looks like something went wrong on your host, e.g., you were running
the test suite twice concurrently.  Or maybe the first one leaves a
mess, and it's only 21/22 which recovers?

| Skipped tests:
|   37: compile.at:169  AC_PROG_CPP without warnings
|   38: compile.at:206  AC_PROG_CPP via CC

Hm.  I'd like to know why the test suite decided to skip them.  Could
you run

./testsuite -v -x 37 38

Grrr...

What does ./testsuite -x -v 15 report?
