Can you send a unidiff of the broken case and a working case (/bin/sh) for the config.status file and the Makefile which causes make to bail?

Try CONFIG_SHELL=/bin/sh export CONFIG_SHELL $CONFIG_SHELL ./configure [OPTIONS...] Cheers, Ralf _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
