from the log:

this seems to be due to install-sh being used over normal mkdir -p.  but
that should be fine by itself ... it seems you have a weird /bin/sh ?  it
is causing errors that shouldn't happen.  the output makes it look like
things are underquoted, but i checked the script and ran it locally, and
it looks fine to me.

these are all some variation of:
