Thanks, but you skipped the most important tests :)
Could you try all of these?

In case noone else sees it, you assigned to $foo and output $bar, so
the result is naturally empty. You should probably try again without
mixing test 1 and 2

I don't understand this, it is not consistent with `cd'. Isn't `echo'
a builtin on your shell? Then I would understand.
Hm, what else must be a builtin? exit has to be.

Akim,
I just downloaded a fresh CVS autoconf and did a build on the Ultrix
box.
This time, I was able to do the build in a subdir (builddir != srcdir).
The tail fragment of "make check" follows. Much better - I'll see if I
can install the GNU grep stuff and see if that helps.

Thanks, this is the culprit:

because PATH may include nonexistent dirs, I included the 2/dev/null

Can you try these please? I'd like to know if

That was to be expected. If you could send a snippet of sh -x

Akim,
I grabbed the CVS copy a few minutes ago - it looked like your patch had
been applied.
I did a "configure/make/make check" on the Ultrix box.
I originally tried to do the build/test in a subdir, but that failed
trying to locate some of the files for sed processing (as I recall).
