I ran `make check' after building sed on cygwin (using the cygport tool to run all the usual commands). A couple of tests failed: ============================================================================ Testsuite summary for GNU sed 4.4 ============================================================================ # TOTAL: 108 # PASS: 104 # SKIP: 2 # XFAIL: 0 # FAIL: 2 # XPASS: 0 # ERROR: 0 ============================================================================ See ./test-suite.log Please report to bug-sed@gnu.org ============================================================================ make[4]: *** [Makefile:3142: test-suite.log] Error 1 make[4]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/sed-4.4-1.src/sed-4.4-1.x86_64/build' make[3]: *** [Makefile:3250: check-TESTS] Error 2 make[3]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/sed-4.4-1.src/sed-4.4-1.x86_64/build' make[2]: *** [Makefile:4090: check-am] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/sed-4.4-1.src/sed-4.4-1.x86_64/build' make[1]: *** [Makefile:3027: check-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/sed-4.4-1.src/sed-4.4-1.x86_64/build' make: *** [Makefile:4092: check] Error 2 The lines containing the failure output: make[4]: Entering directory '/usr/src/sed-4.4-1.src/sed-4.4-1.x86_64/build' FAIL: testsuite/get-mb-cur-max.exe FAIL: testsuite/test-mbrtowc.exe This may have already been reported upstream, I know.
