Hi Ralf,
$ aclocal -I config
/usr/local/bin/m4:config/mca_no_configure_components.m4:9: ERROR: end of
file in string
autom4te: /usr/local/bin/m4 failed with exit status: 1
aclocal: autom4te failed with exit status: 1
$
My line 9 have some characters more (I'm not m4, expert...):
m4_define(mca_backtrace_m4_config_component_list, [^[[00m^[[Kexecinfo,
^[[00m^[[Kprintstack, ^[[00m^[[Kdarwin, ^[[00m^[[Knone])
Actually most of then... but line 55 seems "good":
m4_define(mca_orte_framework_list, [errmgr, ess, filem, grpcomm, iof,
odls, oob, plm, ras, rmaps, rml, routed, snapc])
If I remove these strange characters from line 9 it works, and don't
need the [ ] (brackets?) around "mca_orte_framework_list".
Anybody knows why I have these characters in this file?

[Running] aclocal -I config

Go to the toplevel source directory.
Run
aclocal -I config
to confirm that it's this one that is failing.
Edit config/mca_no_configure_components.m4, changing line 9,
m4_define(mca_backtrace_m4_config_component_list, [execinfo, printstack,
darwin, none])
into
m4_define([mca_backtrace_m4_config_component_list], [execinfo, printstack,
darwin, none])
then rerun
aclocal -I config
to confirm that it's failing at line 10 or later only, now.
I assume the file is being read by m4 twice, and that exposes the
underquotation in it: it should be
m4_define([name], [value])
because otherwise, the second time, 'name' will be expanded before
m4_define is called. Jeff, please fix this in autogen.sh.
If I'm wrong, then I'd like to know
/usr/local/bin/m4 --version
Cheers,
Ralf
