Okay, I messed up again. I described it wrong
before. I should've said, if I do

/usr/src/contrib/binutils/./configure -args

It works okay. I found that with locate.

Are you trying to build src/contrib/binutils?  What for?

Could I have messed up scripts in /usr/ports
or somewhere else when I rebuilt everything?

Dunno.  What is the problem you have with ports?

I never had to add any path to ./configure
before. After I wrote this message, I thought
about paths & did some looking with locate.
That's what seems to be my problem. Wrong
path in env, something missing, etc.

Run the script command. Do something which shows what you think is a problem. Exit from the shell, and paste the contents of the "typescript" file created into email so you can show exactly what the error message is.

Okay, I see I'm in such a confused state that I appear
to be confusing others. I had read somewhere that you
can go into a port dir you want to install, and do
make extract & then cd into the work dir just created,
you could do a ./configure with some option afterward
that would show you all the available arguments/options
you can include when you configure it before making it,
instead of reading the makefile. Then, in that dir, you
do ./configure --arguments --options to get it ready
to build it the way you want. And, instead of that, you
can also do ./configure \ which puts you in a shell on
the next line where you enter all the arguments and then
exit on an empty line when you're done. Which, btw, works
for me. I hope this time I've made it more clear. And
no, I'm not trying to build binutils.
