Configure gets bad result

- Subject: Configure gets bad result
Configure is getting an unterminated quoted string when it checks
whether make sets ${MAKE}. I've heard about problems with a path
"/path/to/foo/" being converted to "\path\to\foo\" which is not properly
terminated. I looked at my environment variables for something ending
with a slash and didn't notice one; do you know what gives configure
indigestion and how to fix it? The configure script is generated by
autoconf from a trivially modified version of the Tcl sample extension.
Here's the output of a printenv and configure:

URL:s addressing this issue (has anyone here compiled the sample Tcl
extension?) would be most appreciated.
