Configure Oops

Configure Oops

[Vidiot]

While running the configure script from zsh-2.6-beta10-hzoli10.2, I get:

checking where signal.h is located... grep: illegal option -- q
Usage: grep -blcnsviwh [ -e ] pattern file . . .
grep: illegal option -- q
Usage: grep -blcnsviwh [ -e ] pattern file . . .
/dev/null

Oops.  The system uses SunOS 4.1.3

Sorry for that. This grep was necessary because Linux may have signal.h in
either <asm/signal.h> or <linux/signal.h>. But under linux, <asm/signal.h>
always exists so we have to use grep do decide wether <asm/signal.h> or
<linux/signal.h> contains the relevant information.

The other problem was that make complained about missing autoheader. This was
because make wanted to remake stamp-h.in since it was older that
configure.in. Just touch stamp-h.in and remake, and it should work.

The patch below fixes hopefully fixes configure.

Do not forget to touch stamp-h.in after applying the patch. Or the best is to
mot use make in the main zsh directory. Just cd to Src, and do make there.
