  * status:  new => closed
  * resolution:  => fixed

Comment:

 This shouldn't be necessary, as the command should expand to something
 like:
 {{{
 CC=gcc sh configure
 }}}
 which will run the configure script in the current directory. I'm not sure
 what's gone wrong, but as the build system has been rewritten for 6.12 I'm
 going to assume it's been fixed.

 If you still have problems with 6.12, please reopen, and include the part
 of the `make` output where the command gets run, and the output of
 {{{
 make show VALUE=SHELL
 }}}
