Mm, I should elaborate: semicolon and newline are supposed to be equivalent. This is simply a bug in Solaris' native /bin/sh. We already recommend that they use a different shell, but currently we don't enforce that by testing and rejecting the broken shell.


Even that different shell we recommend, /bin/ksh, fails to bootstrap
current CVS due to the problem above.  But I understood that in this
our sources can easily work around the problem, right?

Really? With the configure touched manual.
