It appears that there is a bug in the /bin/sh of FreeBSD. It is there in version 1.5.1.1 and version 2.1.0-950928-SNAP. The following script is an example. On every other machine I've tried, this results in output of "foobar" to the screen. #! /bin/sh echo -n foo 1>&1 echo bar 1>&1 GNU version 2 configure uses this with echo -n to put "Checking for ..." on the terminal before doing the test, and then printing the answer on the same line. --Gene Gene Rackow email: rackow@mcs.anl.gov Math & Computer Science voice: 708-252-7126 Argonne National Lab FAX: 708-252-5986 9700 S.
