Hi,

I've been trying to compile Box Backup on OS X 10.6 "Snow Leopard" and 
although it works perfectly when building from SVN, building 0.11rc4 
gives a few odd errors... After running ./configure with no arguments, 
this is what happens:

* Configure succeeds, but config.status outputs many errors:
configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: creating infrastructure/BoxPlatform.pm
sed: 23: ./confstatJxIqOK/subs-2.sed: extra characters at the end of p 
command
[etc, p command error happens for each file]
config.status: creating test/bbackupd/testfiles/syncallowscript.pl
sed: 23: ./confstatJxIqOK/subs-2.sed: extra characters at the end of p 
command
config.status: creating lib/common/BoxConfig.h
config.status: lib/common/BoxConfig.h is unchanged

* Running "make" fails, saying there are no targets.
* A new empty file with name "ill set make to perform concurrent jobs" 
is found in the source directory.

If I run ./bootstrap and try again configure succeeds, but compiling 
fails under docs/ (I believe this is because xsl-generic isn't packaged 
with release tarballs).

Regards,
Stewart
