Terrific; thanks for that. I'll run a couple more tests quickly, and assuming
they're OK, will push this.

Backslash-escaping the quotes seems to be the issue, turning the quotes into
literals causing broken substitution on both sh, ksh and bash.
sdata@antikythera$ cd /home/"sdata" && pwd
/home/sdata
sdata@antikythera$ cd /home/\"sdata\" && pwd
ksh: cd: /home/"sdata" - No such file or directory

Yes, I understand the quotation has to be reworked rather than removed
("quick'n'dirty") - aharvey's supplied patch that changed the manner of
quotation
solved the problem, by the way.
No modifications have been done to my sh binary, and same goes for my
environment
with the exception of setting LC_CTYPE to get proper UTF-8 support. The problem
is
identical whether I run the vanilla configure or the rebuilt one, without
arguments, or with the arguments I use for my PHP build.
I reported this problem already with PHP 5.4.0 on OpenBSD 5.0 - the PHP 5.3
branch
did not show this problem on OpenBSD 5.0 or any other earlier version that I've
been running for years, all of which use an unmodified environment.
Quoting portion of a path - cd /some/path/"somewhere" - works just fine
straight
off the shell with sh, ksh and bash, just like expected. I tested this already
over a year ago when when I found this issue the first time. Why it fails when
executed inside the configure script confused me already back then.

Can you try applying the patch I'm about to upload, then rebuilding configure
by
running ./buildconf, please? (You may need to use ./buildconf --force if you're
using a release tarball; note that you'll require autoconf 2.59 or later.)

# echo $SH_VERSION
@(#)PD KSH v5.2.14 99/07/13.2
