Hi Jonas,

I had a similar report for another project where I did try the same
trick of `cd dir && sh configure $ac_configure_args` which I could
not reproduce. Now I was allowed to have a look at configure script
generated on your system, - and oops, it seems autoconf internals have
changed on that somewhere in between 2.52 and 2.57. There we have extra
"quotes (to) ensure accuracy". *sigh* so, I have to check again how to
ensure the intended goal to have a definite point (within configure
execution) plus some extra arguments for examples subconfigures...

see ya,
