make fails on Solaris 11 b54

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. ./configure
2. make

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Instead of make finishing, it hangs on a sed command:

(from using make -d):
MAKEFLAGS value: 
   Building config.h because it is out of date relative to stamp-h1
  Building all because it is out of date relative to config.h

Hi there,

I am not sure why you are getting this error, but I in svn I have removed the 
need
for this rule, so can you try latest SVN please.

I tried this on Ubuntu 6.10 and afet i compiled and ran it it crashed before 
getting
started.

Tried again on 7.04 and it crashes like so:

gerry@zanussi:~/Desktop/avant-window-navigator-0.1.1$ avant-window-navigator 
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
gerry@zanussi:~/Desktop/avant-window-navigator-0.1.1$ 

Nice and brief.

Hi gerry, 

Can you please run awn in gdb like this:

$ gdb avant-window-navigator
<takes you to he gdb shell>
(gdb) r
<runs awn until it segfaults>
(gdb) bt

he last command will print the backtrace. Can you please copy and paste to 
output here.

Thanks.
