Thanks David, I played around with the PATH variable and took out everything other than the standard windows directories, all to no avail. I also checked which sed and awk are called, they are the ones from MinGW/msys/1.0/bin:
$ which sed /bin/sed.exe $ which awk /bin/awk.exe $ sed --version GNU sed version 4.2.1 $ awk --version GNU Awk 3.1.7 I do have a cygwin installation, but the awk and sed are older versions (3.1.6 and 4.1.5, respectively). I'm positive I tried ./configure without cygwin in my PATH. Are there any other tools used (other than awk and sed) by ./configure?
