The role of gnulib is to provide generally useful functions. Whether m4-1.4.10
uses a particular function or not, is only marginally relevant to the other
users of gnulib.
Since you apparently have access to QNX systems, and since your company seeks
world domination with QNX [1], can you help us to do the porting? I prepared
some modifications and then did
$ ./gnulib-tool --create-testdir --dir=/tmp/gnulib-qnx-testdir --with-tests \
fbufmode fflush fpending fpurge freadable freadahead freading fseek fseeko \
fseterr ftell ftello fwritable fwriting
Can you download that from
http://www.haible.de/bruno/gnu/gnulib-qnx-testdir.tar.gz
and then please report the output, the config.log, and the test failure
investigations from
$ cd gnulib-qnx-testdir
$ ./configure CC="gcc -g -Wall"
$ make
$ make check
