Minor nit: ! is in POSIX; the problem here is Solaris has an ancient
sh implementation (isn't there a POSIX one in something like
/usr/xpg4/bin?). Same with -E for grep.
I'm fine with workarounds for Solaris, but I'm wondering if we want
to tackle this in a different way. Example: we could use AC_PROG_EGREP
for the grep issue (although Oliver's suggestion to combine it into
awk seems reasonable as well). I'm neutral on solutions for the
problem with POSIX shell constructs; we could either get rid of
them or have autoconf pick a better shell.
Oliver's fix with awk works, and saves some cycles, so I'm
happy with that. I'll wrestle with the shell accomodations
here and in the test suite for now. If it gets to be too
much, we can revisit.
