The funny thing is that if I executy this backtick block in the shell directly,
no error is issued.

bq. You mentioned nine-year-old OS ... anyway, do you actually have a
POSIX-compatible shell that accepts $() on HP-UX 10.20? When I used that back
in the day, I'm pretty sure the default Korn-like shell only handled backticks.
Just to make sure, I do not intend to run Subversion on such old machines OSes.
My goal is HP-UX 11.31 on IA64, everything is pretty much unsupported or
deprecated by HP.
bq. Our configure scripts are supposed to be platform independent, but
Linux-specific stuff has probably crept in in places, since most people don't
have access to HP-UX or Solaris or AIX.
I am just trying to make everyone happy.

I highly doubt that, we even have 20 years old HP-UX 10.20 machines. Which is
is older than Subversion. There is of course an alternative to this: you can
skip this macro altogether on HP-UX. There is no {{/lib64}} or {{/usr/lib64}}.
{{/lib}} links to {{/usr/lib}} which does only contain links. System-supplied
libs are in {{/usr/lib/hpux32}} everyhing else, manually or from port lands
either in {{/opt}} or in {{/usr/local}}. This is not Linux where base and
packages are mixed. Especially, all of those affected libs are in
{{/usr/local}} from the [HP Porting Archive|http://hpux.connect.org.uk/]. How
does that sound?

I don't have access to an HP-UX machine so I have no idea where to even start
looking for a different fix.
Subversion and the backticks in configure.ac are quite a bit older than your
OS, FWIW. :)

We use backticks because some older OSes (notably some versions of Solaris)
don't have a shell that can use {{$()}}. Backticks are still "standard POSIX".
It would be more interesting to understand why they don't work in your
particular environment instead of just blindly replacing them and possibly
breaking the build on some other platform.
