The error is reported to be in the configure script (if you ``make
patch'', you can edit work/k*/configure - line 4596), but the script,
although clearly not doing what it was intended to, is syntactically
correct.
What shell are you running the script with (I know it's got
``#! /bin/sh'' at the top), and what's SHELL set to ?
Cheers.
