OK, not exactly settled, rather worked around: I manually remove /bin/ksh
on the build machine before a major fink update. Since I manually installed
it there I would not necessarily expect fink to support that setup.
Still, it would be nice if ksh would not crash, or one could persuade
libtool to stick with /bin/sh, but the erratic nature of the ksh segfaults
make it somewhat difficult to diagnose the error (or does any of the
developers recognize this as a common problem?).
And I don't know enough about libtool to have any remedy on that side.
Cheers,
Derek
