There's some code in config to detect 'm4 --version' "hanging" on FreeBSD.
It doesn't hang, it just silently ignores the option and starts
preprocessing the input from stdin.
This is true for all BSD-derived m4s - I'm actually running on *cough*
Minix, and the same behaviour is true there.
I think this patch will DTRT, but I'm not applying it because I'd like
someone else who's done configure stuff to have a look at it first:
Looks good to me.
Under Linux it seems to still do the right thing.
BTW you can also get rid of:
- my $archname = $conf->data->get_p5('archname');
- my ( $cpuarch, $osname ) = split m/-/, $archname, 2;
- if ( !defined $osname ) {
- ( $osname, $cpuarch ) = ( $cpuarch, "" );
- }
