What version of autoconf are you running?
Or are you running the configure in the tar balls?

My configure looks like this
...
  ac_save_IFS=$IFS; IFS=$ac_path_separator
ac_dummy="/usr/bin:/usr/ucb"
for ac_dir in $ac_dummy; do
  IFS=$ac_save_IFS
  test -z "$ac_dir" && ac_dir=.
...

I don't see "for as_dir" anywhere in configure.
