There are some problems with the sources.

1. In bash 1.14.7(1) in LFN-enabled environment, ./build.sh end with:
"...
rm -f libbuiltins.a
ar cr libbuiltins.a builtins.o alias.o bind.o break.o builtin.o cd.o colon.o command.o common.o declare.o echo.o enable.o eval.o evalfile.o evalstring.o exec.o exit.o fc.o fg_bg.o hash.o help.o history.o jobs.o kill.o let.o pushd.o read.o return.o set.o setattr.o shift.o source.o suspend.o test.o times.o trap.o type.oulimit.o umask.o wait.o getopts.o shopt.o printf.o getopt.o bashgetopt.o
ranlib libbuiltins.a
make.exe[1]: Leaving directory `h:/gnu/bash-2.03/builtins'
make.exe: *** No rule to make target `lib/readline/terminal.c', needed by `lib/readline/libreadline.a'.  Stop.

Compilation exited abnormally with code 2 at Sat May 22 10:54:48"

2. ./configure seems to be wanting to use "getconf". Do you see this
   too? What is "getconf"?

3. If I run ./configure, it fails because doc/Makefile.in doesn't exist.

4. Correcting that, ./configure fails because
   examples/loadables/Makefile.in doesn't exist.


I have some more issues (patches in works) but I need the solution to
1. so I can send one patch instead of many.
