Hi Daniel, it was SVN Head (revision 11530).

I see the problem in configure
  elif expr "$processor" : "Intel(R).*Core(TM)2.*CPU.*" > /dev/null ; then

should read:

  elif expr "$processor" : ".*Intel(R).*Core(TM)2.*CPU.*" > /dev/null ; then

The $processor variable actual starts with the string:
model name: Intel(R) ...

So adding .* to the front of the regexp fixed it.

Cheers,
Richard.
