This is not a regression then, right? In Autoconf 2.59 that variable has 7368 bytes, so you ought to have the same bug with 2.59. That being said, which version of OpenServer are you using? What shells does it have? Are there any other shells besides that buggy ksh? <http://www.caldera.com/products/openserver507/507supplement3.html> says that as of OpenServer 5.0.7 Maintenance Pack 3, OpenServer has 'bash'. And <http://www.sco.com/support/update/download/> implies that 5.0.7 is the oldest version of OpenServer that SCO still supports. So it sounds like all you should have to do to work around the problem is install an SCO-supplied Bash, set CONFIG_SHELL to bash, and you'll be off to the races. I suppose we could work around the problem by preferring bash to sh in our list of shells to try. But we probably should wait until after 2.60 is out before trying something like that. > P.S. UnixWare 7.1.4 looks good Thanks for checking it.
