I traced my problem with configure further down to the basename call in line
58. It does not come back. I am not sure whether /bin/sh has a builtin
basename or it is using the external /usr/bin/basename. The later is working
fine at my bash prompt.
Changing /bin/sh to /bin/bash at the start of the configure script gets me
slightly further. I now get the following output:
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for gawk... gawk
checking whether make sets ${MAKE}... ./configure: fork: Resource temporarily
unavailable
and here again make seems to hang ...
I am going to try it without configure and make ... :-(
