got around it by just deleting my *.sh file and then running configure
again. If I knew more about autoconf, I could just put some code in that to
delete it. Configure is supposed to create the environment -- part of the
AC_OUTPUT I think, so this is why I asked about this. In my case, my *.sh
is not getting overwritten but seemingly reused. ????
