Here: Cygwin 1.5.25-15, X11R6, and libtool-2.2.7a-3.

Are you using the build script? In my case, since this is an 
experimental build, I use the 'bare' command:

cd texlive-source
./Build --without-graphite 2>&1 | tee ../texlive2009_build_cyg.log

The command:

gcc foo.c -o foo

should create foo.exe on Cygwin, i.e. the suffix '.exe' is appended.

Right! Adding:

-I. -I../../../texk/web2c -I./.. 
-I/home/pippo/work/texlive-20090424-source/Work/texk 
-I/home/pippo/work/texlive-20090424-source/texk

fails only in linking stage, i.e. it creates tangle.o but not the exe.

So, TL guys, what do you think about this?

Thanks,
