Ryan I can't thank-you enough for finding that syntax error for me ! I know next to nothing about autoconf and it would have taken me many long hours to figure that one out. The offending line was also in the configure file at line 3731. The configure script said: if test $ac_cv_lib_tsp_SP_connect = yes; then $SPREAD=2 fi and I simple removed the '$' and the script ran without error.
