grep -e is also a non-portable construct; it might be possible to change that line to call egrep instead, or to rewrite the regex to not need extended regex.

As a short-term workaround, you can always do:

/path/to/bash ./configure

to run it under a shell that won't choke on our use of non-posix constructs.


that will avoid the problems with local, but not necessarily the problem with a missing 'grep -e'. A common approach there is to set $GREP up front to something capable, but then you have to scrub for uses of grep in configure to be replaced with $GREP.
