try running
sh -x ./scripts/linuxver -d /usr/src/linux-2.4.17.clean
and see if we can guess what's wrong (probably the sed)

try salvaging those conftest.s1 files before configure kills them
and see what's in there.

also which version of sed are you runnging (rpm -q sed)
and which version of autoconf, if you have it installed

last thing, try running autoconf in the base lvm source dir and
see if configure works afterwards
