>configure: >checking for hhc... (cached) yes >make: >cd tdg/en/html && hhc index.hhp >/bin/sh: line 1: hhc: command not found I think there is no problem with 'alias'. The problem is "(cached)". "cache files" mechanism is unreliable. I don't understand why/when/how cache test operates. But it sometime operates even if "-C" option isn't explicitly used :(. For example, "configure -C" is used with the command "rm configure && make" or "touch configure.ac && make" (HOW TO DISABLE "-C" OPTION ?) : $ rm configure && make cd . && /bin/sh /cygdrive/d/ST/dev/test_prog/missing --run autoconf /bin/sh ./config.status --recheck running /bin/sh ./configure -C --no-create --no-recursion configure: loading cache config.cache checking for a BSD-compatible install...
