I've just run into a problem. I am unable to configure 7.6 and
7.7. Configure fails a check or two after displaying the compiler
summary. It checks the base directory, updates config.cache and then
fails to create ./config.status.
This is the error I get:
configure: creating ./config.status
./config.status: line 197: syntax error near unexpected token `\"'
./config.status: line 197: ` "\" ) CONFIG_FILES="$CONFIG_FILES \" ;;'
make: *** [configure] Error 1
Looking at the config.status, row 197, it seems like there are a few
bogus lines in there. I'm a bit clueless to how to debug this and I'm
desperate for some help...
