REL7_4_STABLE: configure breakage?

From
Larry Rosenman
Date:
I just updated to the current REL7_4_STABLE cvs, and get
a problem at line 18048 where cat isn't on the path writing
the config.status file.

If I add /usr/bin/ to the cat invocation, it works.

What's broke?

(I updated using:

cvs update -rREL7_4_STABLE -P -d

)

Your shell?

That's hardly the only use of "cat" in the script, and I don't
see any manipulation of PATH in there.

Ok, something in my environment must have been foobared.

Logoff/logon, and all's well.

sorry for the false alarm.
