I compiled from source 

autoconf-2.57
automake-1.7.1

(using the bash shell:)

Then I ran CVSMake with the result:

nucmed31: CVSMake
WARNING: Using auxiliary files such as `acconfig.h', `config.h.bot'
WARNING: and `config.h.top', to define templates for `config.h.in'

WARNING: More sophisticated templates can also be produced, see the
WARNING: documentation.
nucmed31: ./configure
./configure[9]: Syntax error at line 10 : `;;' is not expected.

Now, even if I comment out the lines in the beginning I run into lots
of errors that complain about "echo" - as an example:

.....
checking for gcc option to accept ANSI C... none needed
checking dependency style of gcc... none
checking how to run the C preprocessor... gcc -E
checking for Cygwin environment... no
checking build system type... hppa2.0w-hp-hpux11.00
checking host system type... hppa2.0w-hp-hpux11.00
checking for executable suffix... (cached) 
checking for object file suffix... (cached) o
checking whether to enable large arenas ...... "no"
./configure[4968]: Syntax error at line 5715 : `"testingc"' is not expected.

and even if I start editing, it just goes on and on.  Am I doing
something wrong?

Following Jan Kohnlein's notes I was able to compile sucessfully the
4.2.0 tarball, but I kept getting the "cannot connect to dxexec" message when
running.  "dx -execonly" showed a connection to 1900, but nothing further.


Any help would be appreciated.
