Interesting. Since I submitted the report below, I tried installing
v1.01 on my powerbook which also had 10.4.3, the same compiler
versions etc. On the powerbook, ./configure --> make --> make install
worked brilliantly. I began exploring what could be different on the
2 machines. I checked the versions of everything that seemed
relevant (autoconf, env variables, sh etc) and everything matched.
The machines are so similar I was actually able to configure on the
powerbook and compile/install on the dual G5.
Yesterday afternoon, I did a software update to 10.4.4 on the
dual G5 machine (the one on which I was having trouble).
This morning, to regenerate the config.status file for you, I ran the
same configure command:
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/openmpi
and everything worked fine!! make and sudo make install also
worked perfectly.
Google searching on
sed: unescaped newline inside substitute pattern
shows that this error crops up fairly often, in different
software packages, usually (always?) associated with
conftest, often w/ OS X but not always. Unfortunately
are no solutions posted, at least that I could find.
In the end, I suspect it was the restart rather than
the OS upgrade that fixed the problem, though I can't
imagine what kind of problem got corrected. I wasn't
having any other problems though I was running all
sorts of different applications, including ./configure
on, for example, petsc.
I'm confused but happy that things are working nicely.
Thanks for having a look.

Sorry it's taken a few days to look at this -- I'm unable to
replicate your problem on a 10.4.3 machine, but I'm only using the
gnu compilers (the IBM compilers are not officially supported on
Tiger -- I wouldn't expect that to be the problem here, but anything
is possible).
Can you send your config.status file? (please compress)

Hi.
I'm having trouble configuring v1.0.1 on a system
running OS X 10.4.3, using gcc/xlf. The configure script
is happy until it's in it's final stages and begins to
create the makefiles. Each time it attempts to create
a new makefile, the following error is produced:
config.status: creating test/mca/ns/Makefile
sed: 23: ./confstatBmI51v/subs-4.sed: unescaped newline inside
substitute pattern
The configure then runs to completion but of course each and every
makefile is empty. I've enclosed the log and screen output.
Thanks,
Kraig
