[avrdude-dev] Build Questions

[JLDSystems]

Hello Everyone,

I am working on the Windows version of Avrdude with Eric for WinAVR. I have 
downloaded and installed the complete Cygwin setup, downloaded the latest 
Avrdude files and a build file from Eric. I should forewarn all you that I'm 
comfortable with a commandline interface but I don't know Unix.

Below is the output I receive in the Cygwin window in response to my 
commands:

address@hidden ~
$ cd avrdude

address@hidden ~/avrdude
$ . build.sh
++ export ACLOCAL=aclocal
++ ACLOCAL=aclocal
++ export AUTOHEADER=autoheader
++ AUTOHEADER=autoheader
++ export AUTOCONF=autoconf
++ AUTOCONF=autoconf
++ export AUTOMAKE=automake
++ AUTOMAKE=automake
++ PREFIX=/avrdude/test
++ ./bootstrap
+ aclocal
+ autoheader

 
I then have a winpop that says "Program has performed and illegal operation." 
 The title on the window is PERL. I know previous to this error perl executes 
okay.

I would like to troubleshoot this but I am kind of at a loss as to where to 
start. Can someone tell me what +autoheader is? I am assuming it is similar to 
a batch file because the window title bar shows a bunch of different programs 
executing. Or is their a different tack I should take to try and resolve this 
issue?

Let me know if there is additional information I can collect. Sorry if I am 
to far off topic.

Have a GREAT day!
