I have been investigating the cause of this.
The best I can come up with so far is the line that does the sed replacement.
/^X\(\/\).*/{ s//\1/p; q;}
When presented with ac_file=Makefile this substitution is returning
. XMakefile which I am not sure where we get this from. It seems to work
on the command line when passed XMakefile so I am not sure.
I've tried this in a small script and the same wrong thing happens.
Given ac_file=Makefile I get . XMakefile
I'd appreciate a suggestion as to what to look at. I'm taking a lunch
break and then will have another look with fresher eyes.
