Oh dear. I thought zsh was sane enough to do the right thing when argv[0] ==
/bin/sh =(O| I take it that it is zsh builtin echo that is the culprit here.
Does /bin/echo work correctly?
Well, I have a couple of ideas for a workaround...
You could try forcing a different shell: CONFIG_SHELL=/other/shell
/other/shell ./libtool blah...
Or else forcing the use of the slow fallback echo: ./libtool --no-reexec
--fallback-echo blah...
If either of these (or a variation) works let me know, and we'll see if we
can find a way to fix the echo tests so that the failure mode you are
experiencing can be fixed properly.
Cheers,
Gary.
