Daniele, I'm applying the patch you need to be able to use CVS
Autoconf. May I ask you if you could fetch CVS Autoconf and check
that the test suite succeeds?
Thanks a lot!

* acgeneral.m4 (_AC_OUTPUT_HEADERS, _AC_OUTPUT_FILES): Don't use
`... echo "error: \\\`$f'" ...`
as it's not portable to BSDI 1.3.
Do this instead:
`... echo "error: $f" ...`
Reported by Daniele Arena.
