No, this was one of my own footprints, which had a 'dnl' where it
shouldn't have.  Well, whenever doing something in M4, remember the
warning from the M4 manual
(http://www.gnu.org/software/m4/manual/html_node/Intro.html):

  Once really addicted, users pursue writing of sophisticated `m4'
  applications even to solve simple problems, devoting more time
  debugging their `m4' scripts than doing real work.  Beware that `m4'
  may be dangerous for the health of compulsive programmers.

:)

cheers,

David
