last nagging issues for autogen on windows

I've been trying to troubleshoot and document how to get ./autogen, make, and make install to work on windows. Using Cygwin.

http://apps.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/gramps4win/index.php?title=Source_code_installation#autogen.2C_autoconf.2C_and_make

I've met with some success and can run the output but have a few nagging issues.

the glade check fails as a work around I've been commenting out line 95 of configure.in "imp.find_module('gtk/glade')"
and I tried this which I found on a random wiki page about mac install but it didn't work either. "imp.find_module('glade',[imp.find_module('gtk')[1]])"

I do not have python installed by cygwin because additional dependencies can't be installed by cygwin. I know I have glade installed because I've followed the normal windows install steps and I can run the code just fine. I believe this is the file it's looking for. C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\gtk-2.0\gtk\glade.pyd however, it's just not finding it. Any ideas on how I can get the find_module to work?

When I run ./autogen the following message gets listed

Please add the files
codeset.m4 gettext.m4 glibc21.m4 iconv.m4 isc-posix.m4 lcmessage.m4
progtest.m4
from the /usr/share/aclocal directory to your autoconf macro directory
or directly to your aclocal.m4 file.
You will also need config.guess and config.sub, which you can get from
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config/.

I can't remember where I read it but during one of my many google searches some minor forum thread somewhere said that message is always sent and it can be ignored. is that true?

Do I need to do anything about the following lines that show in the ./autogen.sh screen output?
Running ./configure --enable-maintainer_mode ...
configure: WARNING: unrecognized options: --enable-maintainer-mode
....
configure: WARNING: 'missing' script is too old or missing
...
configure: WARNING: 'gramps.sh.in' seems to ignore the --datarootdir setting

I confirmed that intltool-extract gets installed with the intltool package of cygwin

Need intltool-extract (you have intltool) for checking translation string on glade or XML files. During 'make and install' process, this will generate files with .h extension into /glade directory. Maybe if you cannot see this files (/!\ will be removed at the end), then intltool-extract failed !

m4 macro messages seems to be a warning, because you have an older versions that /m4 directory files. But without config.guess and config.sub, maybe you cannot make an installation !
Did you try ./autogen.sh ?
Or are you working with SVN version ? Does it happend on last stable source (3.1.1) ?

Maybe related to your missing config.guess and config.sub !
