The underquoted definitiom warnings can be fixed by adding square brackets
([ and ]) to the function definitions at the top of the respective.m4 files.
It's documented in the Cygwin mailing lists, I believe.

 /usr/share/aclocal/pkg.m4:5:
Line 5, change to:     AC_DEFUN([PKG_CHECK_MODULES], [
/usr/share/aclocal/freetype2.m4:7: warning: underquoted definition of

/usr/share/aclocal/check.m4:5: warning: underquoted definition of
AM_PATH_CHECK ' is 
Line 5, change to:  AC_DEFUN([AM_PATH_CHECK],

Concerning the error/fail, I'm pretty sure that there's a switch to add when
using aclocal 1.9.  I stayed with aclocal because of it.  You should still
be able to get aclocal 1.8 from the Cygwin repositories.  Next to the
package name, in Cygwin's Setup, there's a little toggle symbol that lets
you revert to an earlier version.

Concerning obtaining more current snapshots, try:

For now.

Subject: [vlc] Failed with exit status:1 while compiling VLC code

Dear all,
    I just downloaded the vlc-snapshot-20050217/ to compile the code.
Followed by the doc--document--CygwinCompileEnvironmentRevB.pdf. I created a
config_setup as follows but failed in aclocal-1.9 -I m4.  Is there anything
wrong or I lost some required functions while setup cygwin?  Thank you!~
