I expect that you do not tamper released files, or there will be confusion
between those who downloaded old version of file and those who downloaded
new version of file.

Unfortunately, the "." comes from the configure script when "dirname no" is
executed due to nonexistent program. I think you can remove "." at the later

  ENV_PATH=`echo $ENV_PATH | $PERLV_PATH -e ...

line of the configure script.

----------
  test -z "$ac_cv_path_CVS" && ac_cv_path_CVS="no"
  ;;
esac
fi
CVS=$ac_cv_path_CVS
if test -n "$CVS"; then
  { $as_echo "$as_me:${as_lineno-$LINENO}: result: $CVS" >&5
$as_echo "$CVS" >&6; }
else
  { $as_echo "$as_me:${as_lineno-$LINENO}: result: no" >&5
$as_echo "no" >&6; }
fi


    ENV_PATH="$ENV_PATH:`dirname $ac_cv_path_CVS`"
----------

----------
+ test -z ''
+ ac_cv_path_CVS=no
+ CVS=no
+ test -n no
+ printf '%s\n' 'configure:5475: result: no'
+ printf '%s\n' no
no
++ dirname no
+ ENV_PATH=/usr/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/bin:.
