Hi, thank you for replying.


First, the configure script is *REALLY* Bourne Shell (/bin/sh)
script because the 1-st line of this script is 
    #! /bin/sh
Therefore, whether bash is installed or not is NOT relative
to this, except the case where /bin/sh is actually bash. It
is probable that /bin/sh is actually bash on MinGW and Cygwin.


Second, the '==' comparison primary is NOT supported by
Bourne Shell (/bin/sh) on the following systems:
    FreeBSD 4.11-RELEASE
    FreeBSD 5.0-RELEASE
    SunOS 5.8 (sparc)
    SunOS 5.9 (i386)

Nothing on the '==' primary could I find in the manual
test(1) of these 4 systems.

In executing the following line:
    [ "5" == "5" ]
Bourne Shell complains with the error message such as
    [: 5: unexpected operator
    test: unknown operator ==

I attach the result on the FreeBSD 4.11-RELEASE box.

Actually, the following error message was printed in
executing the configure script on the FreeBSD box.

            checking for GLUT library... no
      --->  test: x: unexpected operator
            configure: creating ./config.status


Anyway,

thank you very much. I hope that you remember to re-create
the configure script after modifying configure.ac.


Thanks,
