It's line 563. And when I comment that out, the same problem with line 568:
if filepath=`kpsewhich $font.$ext` ; then
num=`expr $num + 1`
The problem is solved when I replace the ` quotes by " quotes,
but this is not the solution, of course. Anyway, for an obscure
reason, these quotes all of a sudden cause trouble at this
part of the m4 script (the same quotes are elsewhere in the script,
but that is OK !?!?!).
Does that help?
Rob.
