Angel,
  Thanks for the response!  I checked the variable $lirc after the point
at which it performed that test, and at that point it was still
correct.  I manually performed the failed expression from the command
line and it seemed to work fine.  I also downgraded coreutils (cat
command, etc), and it still fails within the configure script, so
something very strange is going on.  I also performed the same thing on
a different machine with the same results.
