Hi Bill,

sorry for the delay: today I have been completely busy working on
other things.  From what you write I gather you have solver the
problems you described in the previous messages, right?

Hmmm, I think this is our fault.  In cm_cleaner.sh we have the line

while IFS= read -r line

However, as the Autoconf manual says
(http://www.gnu.org/software/hello/manual/autoconf/Limitations-of-Builtins.html#Limitations-of-Builtins):

read
     No options are portable, not even support -r (Solaris /bin/sh for example).

We will try to come up with a solution as soon as possible.
All the best,

    Roberto
