Hmm... I don't buy this.  It simply says "Don't set CONFIG_SHELL"
(which is probably not right for all GNU-built programs, which is what
that prototype is for), and instead sets the CONFIGURE environment
variable... which is never used in a configure script.  (I checked the
Python one and one or two others.)

You will note that the <host> prototypes
sidai/host/{linux,solaris}.xml have settings for <CONFIG-SHELL>, to
either /bin/bash or /bin/ksh, respectively.

Did you try setting <CONFIG-SHELL> for your relevant host (the one
doing the building), either with the sidai prototype, or one of your
own (or just directly in your <host>.xml)?

If setting CONFIG-SHELL correctly doesn't work, then we have a problem
:-)
