Summary: ./configure fails with MinimalSystem

Initial Comment:
I'm using minimal GNU for windows, not cygwin, and i'm
having this persistent message whan ./configure'ing
scsh 0.6.5:
...
checking for seteuid... no
checking for setreuid... no
./configure: ac_cv_func_setreuid: command not found
configure: error: "Neither setegid nor setregid
defined. Cannot continue."

I later tried with a cygwin version (not the most
recent one), and got the same result. 

What should I do to solve this? 

Thanks,
Edgar Gonçalves

Very weird: I have the same problem in both msys and cygwin :( 
Config.log says a lot of stuff, and ends with 
#|
configure:5265: result: no
configure:5274: error: "Neither setegid nor setregid
defined. Cannot continue."
|#

Could you mail me the binaries for windows (or post them
somewhere, i'll download them pronto)? i'll try downloading
cygwin and build it from scratch, but I'm so frustrated I
can't use scsh in windows just because ./configure needs a
function to know I'm root! :]

Thanks again,
Edgar

I've recently compiled the most recent scsh on the most recent cygwin 
and it worked.  I think, it was minimal cygwin (no further packages 
installed), but I am not sure.

It looks like you are missing setegid or setregid. See the NOTES 
section of man setegid: these functions are possible since Linux 1.3.38.  
Maybe your minimal system is too minimal? What does config.log say?

Andreas.
