Hello,

Please look at this link:
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/commit/?id=560f51d060a04b502bf6407309366d907a10aaf5

The Guix GNU System Distribution is mentioning the
problem.

I would not know it, but I realized there is
problem with absolute paths to shell inside of
scripts, when I tried compiling CLISP on Android
where there are inside peculiar paths, and sh is
not in /bin/sh and then I had to start changing it
in other configure scripts.

OK, I did not succeed to compile it on Android,
but I guess it will work when I figure it all
out. I need some libraries first. On
www.f-droid.org there is Termux application which
allows later through installation of openssh, to
come inside of Android like a server, and work in
console. There is tinyscheme, and there is
picolisp, and I wish there would be CLISP.

I hope this will get attention, so that configure
becomes more portable on various systems.

Jean
