I get the following error when compiling kdegraphics/kdvi:

make.3.71[1]: Entering directory `/home/bastian/src/kde/kdegraphics/kdvi'
test -d kpathsea || mkdir kpathsea
oldpath=`pwd`; \
cd . && newpath=`pwd`; \
cd $oldpath/kpathsea && CC="gcc" CFLAGS="-O2 -Wall" MAKE="make.3.71 " \
$newpath/kpathsea/configure  loading cache ./config.cache
checking whether make.3.71  sets ${MAKE}... \
/home/bastian/src/kde/kdegraphics/kdvi/kpathsea/configure: bad substitution \
make.3.71[1]: *** [kpathsea/kpathsea.a] Error 1 make.3.71[1]: Leaving \
                directory `/home/bastian/src/kde/kdegraphics/kdvi'
make.3.71: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

The error seems to be that kpathsea/configure doesn't handle MAKE
being set to make.3.71.

bastian@stva170> export MAKE="make.3.71"                                    \
                
/home/bastian/src/kde/kdegraphics/kdvi/kpathsea
bastian@stva170> ./configure                                                \
                
/home/bastian/src/kde/kdegraphics/kdvi/kpathsea
loading cache ./config.cache
checking whether make.3.71 sets ${MAKE}... ./configure: bad substitution

While

bastian@stva170> export MAKE="make"                                         \
                
/home/bastian/src/kde/kdegraphics/kdvi/kpathsea
bastian@stva170> ./configure                                                \
                
/home/bastian/src/kde/kdegraphics/kdvi/kpathsea
loading cache ./config.cache
checking whether make sets ${MAKE}... yes
checking for gcc... gcc

works fine...

The problem is line 532 of configure which breaks on my system:

if eval "test \"`echo '$''{'ac_cv_prog_make_${ac_make}_set'+set}'`\" = \
set"; then

appearantly because ${ac_make} expands to make.3.71 which contains dots.

No idea how to fix this....

Cheers,
Waldo
