Doing "export CONFIG_SHELL=/bin/bash" is usually enough, as it forces using bash (no idea why this isn't the default.)
Yep, that worked. Thank you very much. I spent about half an hour trying to figure out how to change the shell before I saw your e-mail.
Now to the next question.
The INSTALL file says:
"Post-compilation installation should be a simple matter of copying the executable to a normal place for web2c binaries and generating the desired formats."
This might as well say "... should be a simple matter of executing black magic that you will know if you already know it" :-)
Well, I simply do "cp build/texk/web2c/luatex `which luatex`" and then "fmtutil --byfmt luatex" (or better "fmtutil --byengine luatex" for texlive 2009) and let the magic work, though this means I'm left with unstable luatex and no way for the distribution provided version to coexist. -- Khaled Hosny Arabic localiser and member of Arabeyes.org team Free font developer
