Erik:
Due to a difference in the default output of the pwd command on mac vs
linux and solaris, configure wouldn't allow the source root to be a
symlink on mac. This patch fixes this by adding -L to the pwd command,
forcing it to show the logical directory rather than the symlink free
one.

Looks good to me.
I checked pwd on Solaris, Linux, Cygwin on Windows, and Mac. They all
show -L as an option. Unfortunately, I don't have the means at this
time to check other platforms such as (non-Mac) BSD, AIX, HP-UX, Unicos,
etc.
