I found a work around. This is on NT SP3. I was trying to run configure on my
d: partition which is an NTFS partition. Moving to C: (FAT) seems to solve the
problem. Probably a bug, but avoidable for now. It looks like the shell "-d"
test is failing after the first two recursions. I can provide more detailed
info if requested.
