OK, but why does it build correctly on all of my other systems? All
have bash installed, but none use it to configure x264, so, while I
suspect it does cause the errors OTHER then the
"[: X264_CSP_Iall: unexpected operator" error. None of the others
breaks the build.

Off to try configuring with bash.
