Hi,
I see a substantial number of errors checking the build on Cygwin
64bit, but it is puzzling that a good number of errors
seem due to files expected in the wrong place

extract from dap4_test/test-suite.log

---------------------------------------------
FAIL: test_fillmismatch
=======================

test_fillmismatch.sh:

ed

FAIL test_fillmismatch.sh (exit status: 1)

FAIL: test_raw
==============

test_raw.sh:
/pub/devel/netcdf/netcdf-4.9.1-1.x86_64/build/dap4_test
testing: test_anon_dim.2.syn

------------------------------------------------

I do not find the first file anywhere,

$ find . -name test_fillmismatch.nc

but I found slightly different filenames

$ find . -name "test_fillmismatch.nc*"
./src/netcdf-c-4.9.1/dap4_test/baselineraw/test_fillmismatch.nc.dmp
./src/netcdf-c-4.9.1/dap4_test/misctestfiles/test_fillmismatch.nc.dap

and the second file only on the build tree

$ find . -name test_anon_dim.2.syn
./build/dap4_test/results_test_meta/test_anon_dim.2.syn

with similar name on both build and source tree

$ find . -name "test_anon_dim.2.syn*"
./build/dap4_test/results_test_data/test_anon_dim.2.syn.d4d
./build/dap4_test/results_test_data/test_anon_dim.2.syn.nc
./build/dap4_test/results_test_meta/test_anon_dim.2.syn
./build/dap4_test/results_test_meta/test_anon_dim.2.syn.d4m
./build/dap4_test/results_test_parse/test_anon_dim.2.syn.d4p
./build/dap4_test/results_test_raw/test_anon_dim.2.syn.dmp
./src/netcdf-c-4.9.1/dap4_test/baseline/test_anon_dim.2.syn.d4d
./src/netcdf-c-4.9.1/dap4_test/baseline/test_anon_dim.2.syn.d4m
./src/netcdf-c-4.9.1/dap4_test/baseline/test_anon_dim.2.syn.d4p
./src/netcdf-c-4.9.1/dap4_test/baselineraw/test_anon_dim.2.syn.dmp
./src/netcdf-c-4.9.1/dap4_test/daptestfiles/test_anon_dim.2.syn.dap
./src/netcdf-c-4.9.1/dap4_test/dmrtestfiles/test_anon_dim.2.syn.dmr


Questions:
        are files missing on the source tarball ?
        are looked in the wrong tree ?
        or is the Cygwin build incorrectly managing filenames ?
