Now that autoconf 1.3 is out of the way...

Available at my DJGPP developer download site 
(http://members.xoom.com/snowball3/djgpp/) is are diffs and some 
extra files needed to produce a DJGPP port of bash 2.02.1. The port is 
based on Daisuke Aoyama's port of bash 2.01 which is based on the 
bash 1.147 port.

I've sent Daisuke an e-mail several days ago but I haven't heard back 
yet. If he should become active again, I'd be glad to turn over to him the 
diffs and any changes/enhancements made since I have no wish to 
take over from him.

My main interest in this port is: updating to the current bash, and fixing 
bash so it's more consistant in running batch files and exes. For 
example, '/bin/sh' runs, but 'exec /bin/sh/ doesn't. 'ding.bat' won't run, 
but '/dir1/dir2/ding.bat' will.

Mark
