Nope. There was enough info: > + : === Running argument.test for argument using /bin/tcsh === Any and all derivatives of the "csh" shell are virtually unusable as anything other than an interactive shell. It is very difficult to cope with the 25 year old /bin/sh on Solaris, but I think I've managed that, so this: SHELL=/bin/sh gmake check should work, but better is to use ksh: SHELL=/usr/xpg4/bin/sh gmake check I will go spend some time figuring out how to ensure that the configure shell is used for running tests.
