Configure is getting an unterminated quoted string when it checks whether make sets ${MAKE}. I've heard about problems with a path "/path/to/foo/" being converted to "\path\to\foo\" which is not properly terminated. I looked at my environment variables for something ending with a slash and didn't notice one; do you know what gives configure indigestion and how to fix it? The configure script is generated by autoconf from a trivially modified version of the Tcl sample extension. Here's the output of a printenv and configure:
