@jpeach I understand the "lets get the latest m4 script". I would normally
be on board with this myself. However I think that is more complex. The issue
here is that the new script needs other scripts.
also not this work

Which says to me that we are going to have more issues trying to update
this script vs just taking the hack. I agree I don't like this myself. But the
tests seems to be a safe and does not break our logic. That is more important I
think at the moment so we can get a 7.0 drop out. You are better at autoconf,
so if you can setup a centos/rhel6 setup with dts3 easily, I am sure you could
make a better solution once you see some of the headache I found.
