You can either use M4 macros m4_define([SKMAJOR], [42]) or initialize the variables after AC_INIT. It's out of necessity that shell lines prior to AC_INIT are ignored: the sanitize shell startup code to put some of the shells in a sane mode of operation needs to come early in the script. This is an Autoconf issue, by the way. Cheers, Ralf
