Okay. Thanks.
I am committing this patch in HEAD only, along with a TODO entry to fix it
correctly later, since it is better than having nothing in place. It might
break cross compilation to darwin though, since $() is not portable. We need
to look at the echo detection code in libtool.m4 to find out why it thinks
zsh echo doesn't remove \ quotes, when it plainly does do so.
Cheers,
Gary.
