I'm seeing further destabilization in the Autoconf/M4 combo.
My increased focus on testing this combination is because:
- there was an announcement that the next Autoconf release may be
released soon,
- due to Stepan's recent changes to Autoconf, it practically now
*requires* at least M4 1.4.7 to operate properly. So if it finally
turns out that 1.4.7 has a regression over previous M4 releases, there
is a trap situation for users.
Here are the failures. By the way, there was a time when version
requirements were not quite as strict, by the way.
Cheers,
Ralf
