[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #35572] ./configure doesn't test for GNU sh, but build files depend on it.

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #35572 (project octave):

The issue is that the output stored in $MX_INC is a newline delimited list. 
Using 'echo' turns the list into a space-separated list.  Any way that
accomplishes that action will be good enough.  This might be possible back in
the original awk script, or you could use sed, or you could use the following
kludge:


VX_INC=$($AWK -f $mk_ops prefix=vx list_h_files=1 $liboctave_dir/vx-ops)
VX_INC=$(echo $VX_INC)
echo "VX_OP_INC = $VX_INC" > $liboctave_dir/vx-op-inc.mk-t


This gets rids of 'echo -n' which you said was problematic and it converts the
list in a separate command rather than embedding it within a double-quoted
string.
