It wasn't this - but that gave me an idea.

The problem happened when running:

./configure --enable-swig

I tracked it down to geos/macros/ac_pkg_swig.m4, line 76:

                         else
                                 AC_MSG_NOTICE([SWIG executable is '$SWIG'])
                                 SWIG_LIB=`$SWIG -swiglib`
                                 AC_MSG_NOTICE([SWIG library directory 
is '$SWIG_LIB'])


$ swig -swiglib
C:\Development\msys\local\bin\Lib
C:/Development/msys/local/share/swig/1.3.31

Which makes sed unhappy. For comparison on Linux:

On linux:

[cfis at orthoceras ~]$ swig -swiglib
/usr/share/swig/1.3.31


I didn't see much use for including this information in the config 
output, so I simply deleted the offending code and the problem went 
aways.  Phew.
