I don't understand your patch then.
-if test "$EUID" -eq "0"  -a "z`uname -o 2>/dev/null`" = "zCygwin" ; then
+# $EUID is a bash-ism, so we can't assume its existence.
[...]
+if test "z`uname -o 2>/dev/null`" = "zCygwin" && test "$EUID" -eq 0; then

So while you converted test "and" link to &&, the $EUID that according
to your comment is a bashism still is used. So how does this solve
anything?

(Besides that, configure is created with shebang of /bin/bash here)
