This is the relevant part:

Ah ha!  You have CR bytes as line endings.

Please change your configure script one more time, to contain this
(only the tr -s... line is changed: I've added \\015 on the left
and a single space on the right) and run it again:

    v=no_install__progs
    t=`sed -n '/^'$v' =/,/[[^\]]$/p' $mk \
        | sed 's/^  *//;/^\$.*/d;/^'$v' =/d' \
        | tr -s '\\015\\012\\\\' '   '`

That makes it so the definition of $no_install_progs_default
contains no carriage return bytes either.
