Very nice to know that you work on a MacBook, as I move closer and  
closer to getting all my users migrated to DC on Mac OS X.  Thank you  
for the offer to look at it.

I am guessing configure scripts are auto gen'd?  That being the case,  
any issues I am having need to be addressed by the developers of  
'autoconf' ?

I stepped through the configure script a line at a time to see if I  
could pin it down.  I have in my bashrc
export CLICOLOR=1
export CLICOLOR_FORCE=1

Commenting out the first fixes it.  This seems poorly documented, as  
the man page for `ls` does not tell me much about how this will  
interfere with the output values for `ls` at all.

Any suggestions on how to keep my colors and still build, as well as  
why this only just bit me now?  I have built far too many things for  
this to crop up only now, and also have had that color setting on all  
my machines since beginnings of 10.5 and maybe 10.4 at some point.

Do you have any idea on where I take this issue to correctly address  
is for a proper fix either in the way I define colors, or in how  
configure scripts are made?

Thank you for your help, I am off to build this out and run some tests.
