Making sure /bin/sh.exe exists fixed the problem for me. Presumably,
the configure scripts could be rewritten to execute config.sub like
"$SHELL config.sub" instead of a plain "config.sub", but I'm not
the one to be digging there right now.
If anyone else is having problems getting through the configure stage,
make sure /bin/sh.exe is a copy of bash.exe and give it a go.
