I removed the necessity of bc by adding Patch268:
xscreensaver-5.00a9-remove-bc.patch (this should work with bash configure) .....
bc is only used in configure and I can't understand the necessity of bc any more
because the usage of bc in configure can be substituded with expr in coreutils.
 
Without this patch, configure stops at this line if not having bc.
