Actually I think you'll find this is more common than you think. In this case, the autoconf pthread checks blow up with -Werror in CFLAGS, so it must be removed, and restored after this check. If you can fix this I'm sure the autoconf guys will be delighted. In the meantime, try replacing the sed with this one. CFLAGS=`echo $CFLAGS | sed 's|-Werror[^[:space:]]*||'` Mark
