Passing -- to mark the end of flags for expr doesn't work everywhere.

I had similar problem with php5.2.3 and php4.4.7. I was building php
for my horde package and the following was observed when running
configure(Sun Sparc Solaris 2.9):
# ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/php.5.23 
> --with-apxs=/usr/apache2/bin/apxs \
>   
> >> --with-gettext --with-dom \
> >> --with-iconv --enable-mbstring=all --enable-mbregex \ 
> >> --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql
> >>     
> creating cache ./config.cache
> checking for Cygwin environment... no
> checking for mingw32 environment... no checking for egrep... egrep 
> checking for a sed that does not truncate output...
/usr/local/bin/sed
> expr: syntax error
> ../configure: test: argument expected

I used gnu sed when I had the problem when using the Solairs sed.

Have same error when try to compile php-4.4.6

# ./configure
loading cache ./config.cache
checking for egrep... grep -E
checking for a sed that does not truncate output... /bin/sed
expr: syntax error
./configure: test: =: unary operator expected

What kind of Bash are you using? What is the version #?

Okay; I upgraded the bash on the system and made sure configure was
using it (it was using /bin/sh, which is Sun's 'sh' and therefore could
be problematic).  Bash is now at 3.2 and now when I run configure (same
command as mentioned in the original bug):

====

Then it continues on normally.  This problem looks like another problem
I saw in the bug system, so I'll take a look around again for it.  The
build was successful, so I'm inclined to not really care as much anymore
:)  But if it's a real problem I'd like to help track it down all the
same.
