Yes. You ran it on a system whose interpretation of the #! magic number is, let's say, "incomplete". Those error messages come from the shell, trying to interpret perl code. I can't fault the configure script, because the #! does work in some cases, but not all (popen()ed scripts, for example, won't work). You need to go into config.sh and change it so it doesn't think #! works. -- Guy Streeter streeter@ingr.com
