  You know, looking at the configure script, I /really/ don't think there
should be a syntax error on line 11 ....

/gnu/insight-6.7.1 $ cat -n configure | head -14 | tail -6
     9  ## M4sh Initialization.  ##

    11
    12  # Be Bourne compatible
    13  if test -n "${ZSH_VERSION+set}" && (emulate sh) >/dev/null 2>&1; then
    14    emulate sh


  Heh.  This is a cygwin-specific thing:  Don't use WinZIP or WinRAR or any
other gui application to unpack tarballs, because they mangle the line endings
into windows-style CRLF, which bash doesn't understand.  Use command-line tar
instead:

    "tar xvjf <tarball name>.tar.bz2"

or

    "tar xvzf <tarball name>.tar.gz2"

according to the type.

    cheers,
