Yaakov ?
The following as a reminder ...
libintl.a has been moved out of gettext (pkg) recently. As result of that, cygwin (pkg) no longer builds.
The build now fails on dumper.exe.
Building dumper.exe requires libbfd.a to be present (among others), which in turn requires libintl.a to be
present.
src/winsup/utils/Makefile.in only tests for the presence of libbfd.a ... (otherwise, it will skip building
dumper.exe and the build of cygwin (pkg) will NOT fail).
Btw, the definition of the macro libname in src/winsup/Makefile.common uses one argument to many, I think
define libname
###$(realpath $(shell ${CC} --print-file-name=$1 $2))
$(realpath $(shell ${CC} --print-file-name=$1)) # my correction
