So what ended up being the problem with the coredump then?

Anyway, I'm not familiar with configure either, but it
seems that the first non-comment line of the script is
being failed.

Can you try making a copy of "configure" and stripping
it down to just:

for arg
do
echo hi $arg
done

to see what that produces?
