It's a check for a Solaris compiler option which has spaces inside
(and thus in the shellscript variables) and causes problems in the
shell, due to a bug (AFAIWT).

I have no 5.1.

I see two options:
. depend on a different shell for configuring these packages
. patch the offending part out

I'd prefer the first, since it's less effort when maintaining the
packages.
