Follow-up Comment #7, bug #33018 (project octave):
FYI
/bin/sh != /bin/bash
/bin/awk != /bin/nawk
There's a long history on this sort of stuff. There's probably a tutorial on
the subject I wrote still floating around the Internet.
FWIW I spent an entire day running configure, looking at config.log, fixing
the problem and moving to the next failure.
If configure were actually searching the list as stated, it should not have
exited when it didn't find the header after looking in ${IPATH}/suitesparse.
I take a pretty simple approach to this sort of fubar. Fix it and keep
going.
BTW just to be clear:
I did NOT post asking for help. It was a comment in case anyone actually
cared about portability. If anyone does, I'll help resolve it, but at this
point my needs are probably better served by booting Linux, installing a
binary package and doing my work. And no, I'm not nice! Having ported largish
systems from VMS to 6 flavors of Unix, I do have some idea how this stuff
works.
