 New Comment:

I'm having this problem with a fresh checkout (revision 293858) from 
the PHP_5_3 branch. I running on Mac OS X 10.6.2 and have autoconf 
2.65 from macports.

$ ./buildconf
$ ./configure
cat: confdefs.h: No such file or directory
./configure: line 389: ac_fn_c_try_run: command not found
./configure: line 405: 5: Bad file descriptor
./configure: line 406: 6: Bad file descriptor
cat: confdefs.h: No such file or directory
./configure: line 445: ac_fn_c_try_run: command not found
..........

I'm not having the problem when running configure on the 5.3.1 tar 
package.

Thanks, this motivated me to clean up our m4 crap and make it work with
the latest versions of autoconf.  Should still clean up the template
warnings eventually, but those are non-fatal and everything builds
nicely now with autoconf-2.65 for me.

Description:
------------
autoconf-2.64+ has changed behavior with diversions in such a way that
php breaks.  the autoconf documentation has explained that using these
functions with any diversion not explicitly documented is subject to
breakage, and php is doing just that.

http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf.html#Diversion-support

you can also review the discussion on the autoconf lists:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2009-11/msg00045.html

Reproduce code:
---------------
the code can either be changed to stop using divert() completely (since
it doesnt seem to accomplish anything), or increase the numbers used to
something higher than 1000.

Actual result:
--------------
after regenerating autotools, we see:
$ ./configure
cat: confdefs.h: No such file or directory
./configure: line 410: ac_fn_c_try_run: command not found
./configure: line 426: 5: Bad file descriptor
./configure: line 427: 6: Bad file descriptor
cat: confdefs.h: No such file or directory
./configure: line 466: ac_fn_c_try_run: command not found
cat: confdefs.h: No such file or directory
........
