If I modify the configuration script to enable debug mode [1] and run the script with a relative build directory:
mkdir build builddir=build ./configure ninja TextMate
The build fails with an assertion:

I release mode the build completes, I assume because assertions are disabled. If I run the configuration script in debug mode with a full build path the build completes as well:
builddir=$(pwd)/build ./configure
