Hi,
configure from zsh (current from cvs) does not work on NetBSD:
checking where signal.h is located... awk: syntax error at source line 1
context is
{ if ($1 ~ >>> \ <<< "sig\") files[$1] = $1 }
awk: illegal statement at source line 2
/usr/include/sys/signal.h
checking where error names are located... awk: syntax error at source line 1
context is
{ if ($1 ~ >>> \ <<< "err\") files[$1] = $1 }
awk: illegal statement at source line 2
configure: error: ERROR MACROS NOT FOUND: please report to developers
Apparently there is something that nawk cannot handle.
Is this non-standard construction or is NetBSD's nawk broken?
