Use printf instead of echo for some shells. http://www.cygwin.com/ml/libc-alpha/2005-02/msg00123.html This patch does not generate invalid csu/version-info.h which has unterminating " line because some /bin/sh cannot parse correctly. The previous discussion was: http://sources.redhat.com/ml/libc-alpha/2004-08/msg00129.html http://sources.redhat.com/ml/libc-alpha/2004-08/msg00145.html This patch gets rid of all this issue because the conclusion of the discussion was to use printf instead of echo.
