Can you point me to a patch for this issue?

Hi Frank,

not easily, this was part of a major update with many different changes in
the build system that have accumulated during the freeze for the TL2009
distro.

However, the relevant modifications are in {libs,texk,utils}/Makefile.am,
replacing
	eval $(SHELL) $$cmd$$skip) && \
by
	CONFIG_SHELL=$(SHELL) && export CONFIG_SHELL && \
	eval $(SHELL) $$cmd$$skip) && \
and an analogous modification in libs/icu/Makefile.am.

These are the cases where a Makefile starts configuring a subdirectory.
