Found this while testing automake on Solaris 10 with /usr/xpg4/bin/sh as $CONFIG_SHELL.
$ mkdir new && cd new $ touch foo $ /bin/sh -c 'a=.; echo "$a"/*' # Fine. ./foo $ /usr/xpg4/bin/sh -c 'a=.; echo "$a"/*' # Fine as well. ./foo $ /bin/sh -c 'a=. b=; echo "$b$a"/*' # Also fine. ./foo $ /usr/xpg4/bin/sh -c 'a=. b=; echo "$b$a"/*' # Bug! ./* The bug should probably be documented somewhere in the autoconf manual. I might attempt a patch in the next days if nobody beats me (but no promises). Regards, Stefano
