Building 0.6.7 on OS X

Greetings.

I'm having difficulty building scsh 0.6.7 on OS X (10.6.2 on an Intel =
box)  The build fails at a point which is clearly magical enough that I =
don't think I'm going to have much luck debugging it on my own.  The =
build fails with:

/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin

Running that script by itself (that is, not running it from make) =
produces the same result.  The stack trace is below, in case it's =
illuminating.

The only thing that looks at all odd about the ./configure output is =
that the build/host sytem type is identified as i686-apple-darwin10.2.0. =
 Is that perhaps a little old?  I tried (might as well) forcing it to be =
i686-apple-darwin10.6.0, but that didn't do anything.

I've build scsh without any difficulty at all on earlier versions of OS =
X.  I confess to being a bit stumped here, though.

Can anyone suggest any next steps?

All the best,

Norman
