Comment(by Mike.Linda@…):

 Well, I was too hasty. Yes, there are a few sys/* things not found, but
 there are many sys/* things found too.  So that's not it.

 Reading the log more carefully, I see this:

 {{{
   :::
 Checking how to print long doubles...
 gconvert NOT found.
 gcvt() found.
 sprintf() found.
 I'll use sprintf to convert floats into a string.
   :::
 Creating config.sh...
 ./config.sh: line 90: syntax error near unexpected token `('
 ./config.sh: line 90: `d_Gconvert='sprintf((b),"%.*g",(n),(x))''
   :::
 }}}

 So if sprintf() gives trouble, would there be way to make it use gcvt()
 instead?  And if so, how?

 I look forward to any suggestions or help.  Thanks in advance!
