Comment:

 Unfortunately, this seems to require a recent vesion of M4 (or at least,
 it fails when M4 isn't present):
 {{{
 checking whether to build the Parma Watchdog Library... yes
 checking whether to build the ppl_lcdd program... yes
 checking whether to build the ppl_lpsol program... yes
 checking whether to build the ppl_pips program... yes
 checking which interfaces are enabled... cxx c
 checking for GNU M4 that supports accurate traces... configure: error: no
 acceptable m4 could be found in $PATH.
 GNU M4 1.4.5 or later is required; 1.4.11 is recommended
 Error configuring the Parma Polyhedra Library.
 }}}

 (I don't have much time now to think about this or investigate this
 further)
