Configure fails due to pkgsrc's wrapper (-Wl,-Ttext)

[Grégoire Sutre <gregoire.sutre%labri.fr@localhost>]

Hi,

I would like to report a problem with a GNU configure script that works 
fine outside of pkgsrc, but fails within pkgsrc.  I am not sure that 
this is pkgsrc's fault, it may be a bug in the configure script itself.

In short, the command run by configure is of the form:

cc [...] -Wl,-Ttext, -Wl,-Ttext [...]

which works fine outside of pkgsrc, but the real command, after the 
pkgsrc wrapper, is of the form:

cc [...] -Wl,-Ttext -Wl,-Ttext [...]

which leads to:

ld: invalid hex number `-Ttext'

Notice the missing comma at the end of the first `-Wl,-Ttext' in the 
real command (after the pkgsrc wrapper).  The end of config.log is 
provided below.

Thanks,

Grégoire

p.s. The configure script in question is from GRUB 2 (v. 1.97.1).
