Follow-up Comment #2:
OOPS, correction:
I do not think this should be reported to the Autoconf team.
In order to check for some C headers, configure wants to grep them.
To perform this reliably, it needs checks for a "reasonable" grep.
For this, it calls AC_PROG_GREP, which ensures that the grep binary can
handle multiple -e options. It is possible that this feature is not needed in
this particulat configure script, but it is generally a good idea to include
that property in the definition of a "reasonable" grep implementation.
The workaround is not that difficult, after all. Bootstrapping on a weird
platform is often difficult...
Please feel free to submit the problem to bug-autoconf yourself, if you are
not satisfied with the above explanation.
