Based on Release 2019-10-07.
Changelog
=========
- configure: Some shells report a syntax error with "< file (cmd)"
and need the redirection statement to be *after* the command. Our
changes to support the V7 shell by adding round braces caused ash
variants like "dash" to fail.
Thanks to Harald van Dijk for reporting
- cont/cc-config.sh: canged some :>some-file statements into
(:)>some-file. they have meen missed when introducing work arounds
for the V7 Shell on Ultrix that does not support I/O redirection
for builtin commands.
Thanks to Robert Clausecker for reporting
- smake: The error message for failed shell commands has been modified
to "Code %d (%s) from command line..." in order to cause less confusion
with the text printed by smake.
The text for %s is the strerror() result for the exit code if
applicable.
