6.4.5-1 doesn't change it.

The binaries are getting built, they're just not getting installed by  
"make install" on 6.4.5-1, though they were installed by make install  
on 6.4.4-10.

I noticed that during the MacPorts destroot phase (which is basically  
"make install DESTROOT=/someplace") 6.4.4-10 uses the sh shell while  
6.4.5-1 uses ksh.

I also found these differences between running ./configure on  
6.4.4-10 vs. 6.4.5-1:

Not sure what that file is that it can't open.

I had a friend try 6.4.5-0 using MacPorts on Leopard. There was no  
problem. The binaries got installed.


Tiger has ksh version "sh (AT&T Labs Research) 1993-12-28 p"

Leopard has ksh version "sh (AT&T Research) 1993-12-28 s+"
