zsh-cvs strange install

zsh-cvs strange install

[jarausch]

Hi,

I just tried to build the cvs version and to install it
here on my IRIX 6.5 box.

I did 
make distclean
Util/preconfig
configure ...

The build works fine, but
install installs it as
zsh@EXEEXT@

renaming that to zsh and starting it,
I get strangely
1 % /usr/PRIVATE/bin/zsh
interactive
monitor
zle
interactive
monitor
zle
interactive
monitor
zle
"^@" set-mark-command

"^L" clear-screen
"^M" accept-line
"^N" down-line-or-history
"^O" accept-line-and-down-history
"^P" up-line-or-history

.. and much more

So, what did I miss?
The last production version here is the cvs-version from 2000/02/17

Thanks for any hints,
Helmut.

Looks like your configure, or maybe just your config.status, aren't up to
date.  configure should contain this line:

s%@EXEEXT@%$EXEEXT%g

and config.status should contain this line everywhere except where an
executable extension is actually required:

s%@EXEEXT@%%g

as input to sed.  If they are, try re-running config.status.

Yes, that might be zsh-3.1.7 seems to be completely broken
on my IRIX6.5

I have got the fresh zsh-3.1.7.tar.gz by ftp and
have built it as usual.
It now installs fine BUT
a) when invoked from a running shell
   it prints out strange things and doing just a
   cd something
   kills it
   on the system console I get
   waitmap: error starting program
ALERT: Process [zsh] 1490059 generated trap, but has signal 11 held or ignored
        epc 0xfa38278 ra 0x10075df0 badvaddr 0x0
Process has been killed to prevent infinite loop
[ESP System Information Notification]:"ALERT: Process [zsh] 1490059 generated trap, but has signal 11 held or ignored"

b) invoking a new xterm it dies immediately.

Sorry for the bad news,
Helmut.

I'll try generate a debug version to locate the problem a bit.
