These errors result from bash's problem with cat, you get this kind of
error if you type:

 $ cat << FOO
 $ text....
 $ bla
 $ FOO

And configure uses /bin/sh. It could be you linked this to your bash ?
You will solve this using the real "sh" not "bash" and saying

 $ sh ./configure

Hope this help... Stefan.
