OK, thanks, I did that, and now my Squid3 snapshot builds just fine.
I don't observe the symptoms that Linda reported in
<http://www.squid-cache.org/mail-archive/squid-users/200603/0532.html>.
And this is despite the fact that I put (shudder) "shopt -s xpg_echo"
into my ~/.bashrc (which my BASH_ENV points at) so that "bash" and
"sh" both now have the XSI behavior.

So I still don't know how to reproduce the problem.
