Can't autoconf Ruby1.8 CVS HEAD

Can’t autoconf Ruby 1.8 HEAD:
autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.57

$ configure --prefix=/home/austin
configure: error: cannot run /bin/sh ./config.sub

I’ve attached the output of:
autoconf -v --warnings=all

Help! Why can’t I get this thing to work?

What’s your system, and what do followings produce?

$ /bin/sh ./config.sub
$ /bin/sh ./config.sub sun4

I checked aliases to make sure that nothing is breaking anything
else.

How did you get config.sub? Seems like EOL issue.

$ unix2dos < config.sub > config.sub.dos

Ah. That explains it. I got 1.8 by Windows CVS (TortoiseCVS), which
appears to have made it DOS EOL. Damn, but that’s annoying.
