I'm wondering what's going on here. As for the extras/source/autotext
problem you reported I also cannot reproduce this one.

M117 build build fine here except for the
  "solenv/inc/startup/wnt/macros.mk"
problem.

It might be a cygwin problem, which version do you use?

Is the error reproducible? The above code looks fine to me.

As you can see here
<http://tools.openoffice.org/source/browse/external/moz/extractfiles.mk>
that code didn't change in a while and it works for everyone else.

Good question.

Works for me.

No idea at the moment. How do you start the build?

dmake in source directory? Can you try

$ cd moz

$ build

and see if that changes anything? (It shouldn't)

Cygwin 1.5.18 has a known problem (forgot the iz#) but cygwin 1.5.17
and the current cygwin snapshot work for me.
