Package: autoconf
Version: 2.64-1
Severity: normal

I built ruby (www.ruby-lang.org) with autoconf 2.64-1,
and I found strange directory '"$as_dir"' found in build directory.


Ruby's configure.in includes $as_mkdir_p,
it makes '"$as_dir"' directory.


reproducable example:

% cat configure.in
AC_INIT()
if $as_mkdir_p; then
  MAKEDIRS='mkdir -p'
else
  MAKEDIRS='install -d'
fi
% autoconf
% ./configure
% \ls
"$as_dir"  autom4te.cache  config.log  configure  configure.in
%
