I still have no idea what's going on in your case (and I guess the bug
you observe is different from the one on AIX).  So I have a few further
questions.

What is
  /bin/bash --version
  echo $PATH
  type mkdir expr dirname basename

?  Could you show the output of the broken config.status file with
  rm -rf lib/.deps
  /bin/bash -x ./config.status lib/Makefile depfiles >status-log 2>&1

or, if that does not expose any of those failures, then
  rm -rf lib/.deps src/.deps
  /bin/bash -x ./config.status >status-log 2>&1

(please pack again)?

Thanks,
Ralf
