When installing the cint-interpreter start. / configure returns a syntax error

I try to install the interpreter cintusing the instructions given on their website (the instructions are also given below as a link). When I run the command, ./configureI get the following error:

~/cint-5.16.19$ ./configure
./configure: 23: ./configure: Syntax error: "(" unexpected

It seems strange to see how I did not include any parentheses to start with ...

Any suggestions? (I use the shell bashin Xubuntu 14.)

Instructions from cint:

$ tar xfz cint-5.16.19-source.tar.gz     <--this step worked
$ cd cint-5.16.19                        <--this step worked
$ ./configure                            <--this step not working
$ gmake

Edit: Includes additional information.

The corresponding line in configure(i.e. line 23, to which the error message refers above) is as follows:

ARCHS=(linux linuxicc macgcc djgpp cygwin mingw mwerks hpux aix msvc7 msvc8 solaris solarisgcc)

Regarding shell compatibility, the configurefollowing was included at the beginning of the file :

# This is a bash script, which works with any reasonable sh.
# Solaris sh is not, so we have to start bash, and call ourselves again.

[ "x$1" != "x__have_the_proper_shell@" ] && ( \
uname -a | grep -i sunos > /dev/null \
  && (bash $0 __have_the_proper_shell@ "$*") \
  || (sh $0 __have_the_proper_shell@ "$*") \
)
