 this should not happen at all, because configure scripts are run using
 ${CONFIG_SHELL}, which on Solaris is /bin/ksh, whose built-in test(1)
 does support -e.

 I guess the script isn't being run via ${CONFIG_SHELL} for some
 reason.

 grant.

 I see.

 The configure script in www/zope3 is not GNU configure script,
 I think that it ignores ${CONFIG_SHELL}.

 It cannot. Look at pkgsrc/mk/bsd.pkg.mk and grep for "do-configure:". 
 The ${CONFIG_SHELL} is forced by pkgsrc; it's not the package's choice.

 I have CONFIG_SHELL set manually in my mk.conf. Maybe it's not /bin/ksh 
 by default?

 it is defined when GNU_CONFIGURE is true. are you sure having
 CONFIG_SHELL in mk.conf is a good idea? you'll probably be hiding from
 a few problems by doing this.. :)

 the fix should be as simple as calling the configure script using
 ${SHELL}.

 grant.

State-Changed-When: Sun, 05 Jun 2022 22:21:29 +0000
State-Changed-Why:
I am not clear on the exact setup with zope these days, but there
is no longer a zope3 package as named in this report.

Consequently, it's unlikely that the offending code remains in any
thing like the originally encounted form.

If current zope is broken, please file a new PR.
