[cairo] ../doltlibtool: line 11: syntax error near unexpected token `"$arg"'

[Ryan Schmidt]

To upgrade cairo in MacPorts from 1.8.0 to 1.8.2, I tried patching  
src/cairo-xlib-surface.c as you suggested, replacing RepeatNone with  
0 and RepeatNormal with 1, until we can upgrade xrender (see the  
thread "error: 'RepeatNone' undeclared (first use in this  
function)" [1]). Now I get a new error:

doltlibtool's shebang line points to /bin/bash which, on Mac OS X  
10.4.11, is bash 2.05b.0(1)-release.

If I install MacPorts bash, which is 3.2.39(1)-release, and change  
the shebang line to point to it, the build works.

So line 11 of doltlibtool must use a bash 3-ism. Can that line be  
changed to work with bash 2?
