Bug#468465: FTBFS: make: execvp: ./configure: Permission denied

[Vincent Bernat]

Package: libgpmg1
Version: 1.20.3~pre3-1
Severity: serious
Tags: patch
Justification: FTBFS

Hi !

When building gpm from source, I get:

autoconf
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc
make: execvp: ./configure: Permission denied

Building again solves the problem. Attached a very simple patch to
solve the problem.
