Interesting. Unfortunately, we cannot use changes to configure because it is "compiled" from autoconf/configure.in by the autoconf tools.
I just checked the ./configure of the latest code that I built last week on 8.2 and it has the ECHO = 'printf %s\n' which works for me. Perhaps the real problem may be something with your /bin/sh or perhaps some alias you have in your environment ????
