Re: how to build cygwin from source?

I configured like this:

mkdir /oss/build
mkdir /oss/install
cd build
/oss/src/configure --prefix=/oss/install

this is a call to a configure with absolute path


make >& make.out
make install > install.log 2>&1

when i compiled cygwin2.5.2-1 from source code  in cygwin 2.2.1-1(win 7),i got a error:

c++wrap -O2 -g -fno-rtti -fno-exceptions -fno-use-cxa-atexit -Wall -Wstrict-aliasing -Wwrite-strings -fno-common -pipe -fbuiltin -fmessage-length=0 -MMD -Werror -fmerge-constants -ftracer -c -o autoload.o

../../../../cygwinSrc/winsup/cygwin/autoload.cc

but this is a relative path.
Have you some residual around of a previous build ?
