I'm trying to run autoconf on darwin, and it requires autoconf-2.64. When I run it I wind up with extra lines in the resulting configure file:

I tried to update to m4-1.4.15 from m4-1.4.6, but that didn't see to fix it. I didn't rebuild, reinstall autoconf after updating m4, just added it to the front of my path. Any clues?
