More Configure problems

[Peter Stephenson <pws@xxxxxx>]

Next problem with Configure... actually with the makedepend script
that comes with it:  this assignment is failing:

    defrule=`<$mf sed -n		\
	-e '/^\.c\(\$(OBJ_EXT)\|\.o\):.*;/{'	\
	-e    's/\$\*\.c//'		\
	-e    's/^[^;]*;[	 ]*//p'	\
	-e    q				\
	-e '}'				\
	-e '/^\.c\(\$(OBJ_EXT)\|\.o\): *$/{'	\
	-e    N				\
	-e    's/\$\*\.c//'		\
	-e    's/^.*\n[	 ]*//p'		\
	-e    q				\
	-e '}'`

That first interestingly positioned <$mf (sometimes I wonder if people
do this deliberately) is supposed to be a redirection, but zsh is
treating it like $(<...).  ksh behaves like sh here, i.e. only $(<...)
has that behaviour.  Perhaps we should follow suit.

Zoltan will know what to do.
