Original bug ID: 7243
Reporter: shaynefletcher
Status: closed (set by @damiendoligez on 2016-04-28T19:22:53Z)
Resolution: fixed
Priority: normal
Severity: minor
Fixed in version: 4.04.0 +dev / +beta1 / +beta2
Category: platform support (windows, cross-compilation, etc)

Bug description

Building 4.03. I gunzip and tar xvf the source package but find that

tools/make-version-header.sh
stdlib/CompFlags

"breaks" with my Cygwin /usr/bin/sed (choking on '\r'). Problem overcome by running dos2unix on those two files.

Determined that the problem also exists (for me) with 4.02.3.

This could be a consequence of using winzip instead of (Cygwin) tar to do the unpacking. If so, probably the resolution is to simply document the issue in the README.win32.

This is definitely a consequence of using winzip, as the characters are not in the archive and don't appear when using /usr/bin/tar to unpack the archive.

We will document the problem.
