Hm. Well, this is really a bug in bash, but since that version is so
old I doubt you'll be able to get a patch for it: they'll probably just
say you should upgrade.
If you really want this old version of bash supported, then you should
report this as a bug to the autoconf folks ([EMAIL PROTECTED]).
There's not much that GNU make can do about this, since it just uses
autoconf to generate the configure file.
HTH!
