To force gcc you have to say `make setup CC=cc'.
Nevertheless it is indeed strange, because the configure script by
default starts with checking for gcc. You should consult config.log.

Why does `/./' screw up things? This is a valid part of the path,
AFAIK. It seems that your shell has some problems... Try bash.

This has been fixed in the current snapshot. Simply say
chmod 755 install-sh
to set the execution permission flag.

Again, this looks like a bug in the shell.
