Hi,

I'm attempting to compile under cygwin.

Calling configure (with --disable-python) succeeds, but make fails (with error message as below).

The problem would appear to be the absence of 'secure_getenv', though FWIW the generated makefile contains 'HAVE_SECURE_GETENV = 0'.

Any pointers on how I might get this to compile (preferably with minimum disruption to the source or build process)?

Thanks and best wishes,

Jerry.
