That "wd" looks like there's something unusual about the
environment.  Perhaps "MAKE" is set to something that contains
a space followed by "wd"?  What happens if you do the following
trivial change to "configure", to try to debug it?  If the
$MAKE environment variable contains a space in it, there's
a simple fix, but I'd like to know that we've actually isolated
the problem.
