OK,
from what we've learned I draw the following conclusions:
- the issue has got nothing to do with Mac OS X in itself, only with the
fact that Apple doesn't supply a 'sh' but instead a 'zsh' which sh is
symlinked to
- 'emulate sh' does not help
- the line "CDPATH=" from configure may be necessary to stop 'cd' from
being verbose with bash, but it's causing the opposite with zsh! Without
that line the script works, but setting it - even to the empty string -
causes zsh to print out the cwd
- adding the line "unset CDPATH" works
So, *if* adding the unset command doesn't break anything, I guess the
solution would be to add this line to the configure script.
Regarding autoconf: OS X comes with version 2.13. From what I've read
version 2.50 wouldn't have made a difference in this situation...
Greetings, Sebastian
