[mpich-discuss] Errors building MPICH on Windows 10 Ubuntu subsystem

Folks,

Damian is having a problem with autotools.  This shouldn't have anything to do with GCC.

I'm curious as to why --disable-maintainer-mode is not helping since that option should essentially disable Makefile.in's dependency on Makefile.am/configure.ac, etc.  So even if the timestamps are broken, autotools should never be called.
