Look for references to files named Makefile.in.in and Makefile.in in
configure and configure.sub (may also be in some of the sub-folder control
scripts).  I discovered that when sed output to Makefile.in, it zeroed
Makefile.in.in.  I cannot reproduce this from the command line (bash, sh,
or COMMAND.COM), but inside the configure script, it happened every time.  
I edited the configure scripts to reference Makefile.first instead of
Makefile.in.in and renamed all Makefile.in.in files to Makefile.first.  
That solved the problem.  Note that if sed fails in the script, the script
does not catch the error.

I have a Win98SE based system and assumed the error was unique to that
system and not on NT.
