I'm glad you got it working.

To discover the difference between the invocations of the `configure'
script, may I suggest that you read the manual page for the command
interpreter shell that you use.  The following table shows what command
to execute to obtain the manual page:

    If you use                          Execute this command
    ----------                          --------------------
    bash                                man 1 bash
    csh                                 man 1 csh
    ksh                                 man 1 ksh
    sh                                  man 1 sh
