Running gettext 0.18.1.1's configure script on Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger causes a crash reporter dialog box to appear saying that conftest has crashed in realpath. It would be best if the configure script would not summon graphical dialog boxes the user must dismiss, which in this case means it would be best if the configure script would not run tests that crash. I see that realpath is tested for in canonicalize.m4; this seems to be where the crash is occurring. (I can reproduce the crash by compiling and running the attached realpath.c which is based on the test code in canonicalize.m4.)

This problem was reported to the MacPorts project here: https://trac.macports.org/ticket/29412
