Could be either.

Debian Bookworm uses Autoconf 2.71+patches, as opposed to the Autoconf 2.69+patches that Fedora 35 uses. For what it's worth I just now tried to reproduce the problem on Fedora 35 but with an Autoconf 2.71 that I installed by hand, and could not reproduce the problem. However, I looked at the patches in autoconf_2.71-2.debian.tar.xz and none of them seemed to be relevant (some don't even apply, which is curious....).

If you have an easily-reproducible script (runs in the C locale, etc.) it might be worth a bug report to the Debian developers. To be honest though it sounds like it might be something odd on your laptop.
