Hi,

When I use dash as sh and I want to compile mplayer with the french 
translation, I have an error after the 'make' :

cc -c -I../libvo -I../../libvo -I/usr/X11R6/include -fno-PIC -O4
-march=athlon-xp -mtune=athlon-xp -pipe -ffast-math
-fomit-frame-pointer -D_REENTRANT -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE
-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64  -I.      -I/usr/include/freetype2  
-I/usr/X11R6/include   -I./libavutil -I./libavcodec   -o mplayer.o
mplayer.c
In file included from mplayer.c:45:
help_mp.h:1453: error: syntax error before string constant
help_mp.h:1455: error: missing terminating " character
In file included from mplayer.c:47:
m_option.h:24: error: syntax error before 'm_option_type_flag'
[cut]


and after a flood of other similar errors it ends without compiling.

I use the today svn version. And the configure options :
./configure --language=fr --charset=UTF-8

With the english language or with bash as sh this error don't appear. So 
there is probably a script marked as /bin/sh whereas it need /bin/bash.
