Bug Type: Compile Failure
Operating System: OpenBSD 3.1-stable
PHP Version: 4CVS-2003-02-12 (stable)
New Comment:
After much frustration, I have now recompiled absolutely everything:
kernel, whole OS, all the appropriate dev tools (m4, autoconf etc),
pulled a fresh CVS copy of PHP, and now it finally compiles. I don't
know where the problem was, but wherever it was, it's now gone away. As
I don't know if the fix was done in PHP or my system, this should
probably be marked as bogus.

What is the EXACT output of 'm4 --version' ??
And did you get m4,libtool,autoconf from www.gnu.org ?
And compiled yourself? (m4 needs to be first..)

I downgraded to autoconf 2.13 (and buildconf no longer complains about
it), but I'm still getting the same error.

Since the configure and the .h files are already built running
buildconf does nothing beyond checking that they exists and moving on.
Autoconf 2.53 is not recommended for building php configure, if
possible try upgrading to a later version (2.57 is the latest) or
downgrade to 2.13, which is known to work properly.

>From my original posting: I'm using autoconf 2.53, automake 1.6.3,
libtool 1.4.3 and m4 1.4. Just for good measure, I recompiled and
reinstalled all of them. Any other programs I should check?
Is the release version built like a snapshot? It does do a buildconf
like the CVS version, but I don't get this error with it.

The difference betweent the snapshots & the CVS is that with snapshots
buildconf has already been run the the configure script has been built
using the individual m4 files.
Since you are having problem with the CVS I must conclude that the
problem lies with one of the system utilities used during the buildconf
process.
What versions of autoconf & libtool are you using?
