COUTFLAG came from configure script:

: ${OUTFLAG='-o '}
: ${COUTFLAG=${OUTFLAG}}

If you execute this sciprt (test.sh), what would be output?

----------------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/sh

: ${OUTFLAG='-o '}
: ${COUTFLAG=${OUTFLAG}}
echo "|${OUTFLAG}|"
echo "|${COUTFLAG}|"
----------------------------------------------------------------

Expected output is:

% sh test.sh
|-o |
|-o |

But you might be see without space.

And what about execute with ksh?

% ksh test.sh

Best regards.
