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.
