The problem itself isn't the variable but rather the fact that configure treats the entire thing like anything after --prefix is an argument. Looking at the Makefile after configure shows 'prefix = /usr/X11 --sysconfdir=/etc --mandir=/usr/X11/share/man --localstatedir=/var', and that's where the problem lies. Using the values themselves - rather than $XORG_CONFIG - with configure works perfectly. Therefore, if the variable is set properly and the commands work by normal use, then the only thing I can think of is that, for some reason, ZSH isn't properly passing the value to configure. The fact that it works on BASH strengthens this theory; './configure $(echo $XORG_CONFIG)' also works. (forgot to cc blfs-book)
