Is it possible to apply the commit below from master to branch-2.1?
It fixes the build on RHEL-6 using autoconf 2.63.

There will be a conflict with NEWS file due the context changes and
another with configure.ac for the same reason.

    build: Allow building with autoconf 2.63
    
    Reduces the dependency on autoconf from 2.64 to 2.63 to ease building
    on older platforms. There is only a few macros missing and they can
    be provided easily.
    
    A handful of tests needed modification. The difference in quoting
    behaviour between 2.63 and later require the m4_define() to be
    manually unfolded.
    
    The Debian control file is left untouched on purpose. The decision
    whether to adjust the dependency is left to the respective maintainers.
    
    Tested with autoconf 2.63 and 2.69.
