P.S. If you build your own auto* tools, you should be sure to get

I may not have done that. I did install m4-1.4.something but probably
not before I built automake/autoconf.

You'd expect that the ./configure would fail if it need m4 1.4.8 though, right?

This whole process has been very frustrating for you and me both. I
got a build to work today briefly but when I tried again from a fresh
checkout it was broke because of subsequent patches. It's not my call
to generate the ./configure on RHEL3 or RHEL4. It's something that
JPMC want to be able to do in order to be able to build at least a
qpid-cpp-client distribution (with examples) for an internal team who
are trying that out. It all worked fine prior to autoconf/automake.

Heck. At home I can now quite happily build qpid-cpp. That's just not
convenient for the JPMC guys though.

I'll suggest to them that they ought to order a build PC and put Fedora on it.
