I tried your patch but unfortunately it doesn't work.
It looks like you tried to apply that patch to Autoconf 2.69. It won't do the
job there. You can try doing some software archaeology to figure out why, but
it may be simpler to run bleeding-edge Autoconf instead. If you have up-to-date
tools you can do something like this:
git clone git://git.sv.gnu.org/autoconf.git
cd autoconf
autoreconf -vi
./configure --prefix=/your/favorite/directory
make install
And then /your/favorite/directory/bin/autoconf should contain a copy of
bleeding-edge Autoconf.
