New Comment:
Thank you. I tried your patch and found two problems.
1. When I use `^' as the first character of the pattern,
I got the following warning.
% expr abcde : ^abc
expr: warning: unportable BRE: `^abc': using `^' as the first
character
of the basic regular expression is not portable; it is being
ignored
3
According to the man page you spotted,
The regular expression is anchored to
the beginning of the string with an implicit ``^''.
so I removed `^' from the pattern.
% expr abcde : abc
3
2. The exit status of "text `expr $string : $pattern`"
seems to be always 0.
% test `expr abcde : abc`; echo $?
0
% test `expr abcde : xxx`; echo $?
0
so I changed it to check whether the return value
of `expr' equals to zero.
% expr abcde : abc
3
% expr abcde : xxx
0
% test `expr abcde : abc` -ne 0; echo $?
0
% test `expr abcde : xxx` -ne 0; echo $?
1
I made another patch again. I tested it on the following machines, and
both work well.
% uname -a
Linux host1.example.com 2.6.9-34.0.2.EL #1 Fri Jul 7 19:24:57 CDT
2006 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
% uname -a
SunOS host2.example.com 5.6 Generic_105182-25 i86pc i386 i86pc
Could you please try it again?

Thank you for your reply and patch.
FreeBSD has no GNU expr, and it doesn't have 'substr'.
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=expr&apropos=0&sektion=0&manpath=FreeBSD+6.1-RELEASE&format=html
I changed your patch followings and it seems work.
Is it work on Linux and other OS?

OK, I got it.
I found that the pure Bourne Shell (not bash) can't recognize
${parameter:offset:length} style syntax.
I'm sorry to bother you again but could you please try this patch?

Sorry, I said 'bash' as '/bin/sh is a link of bash.'
Thank you for your patch.
It solves ./configure problem.

I tried it on bash, zsh, tcsh, csh, and ksh.
But it worked well every time.

Description:
------------
I checked out phpdoc-ja from cvs.php.net.
And I run ./configure to generate Makefile.
But it returns error.
Just maybe is it only work with bash?
Reproduce code:

% autoconf259
% ./configure --with-lang=ja
file versions
Makefile.in,v 1.172
configure.in,v 1.236
(snip)
checking for php... /usr/local/bin/php
checking php version... 5.1.6 cli
checking for php.ini path... ./scripts
checking for openjade... /usr/local/bin/openjade
./configure.lineno: 1606: Syntax error: Bad substitution
