Here is a bug report about Autoconf. I have checked 2.13 and the
2.49a, but both have the same problem. I don't know which should be
blamed, grep or autoconf, though.

Ok, I have found the guilty program. My problem was to be able to
compile grub with gcc 2.96 and the glibc 2.9.

Only if we also specify that packages shouldn't install anything in
sysconfdir with `make install', only with `install-sysconf'. But
then, this would be a behav
On the page

the link for the sources,
http://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/autoconf/autoconf-2.13.tar.gz
return an HTTP Error 404. Did you mean it to be
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/autoconf/autoconf-2.13.tar.gz
instead?

Hello!
This report is actually about Autoconf. Note that the line in question is
still present in the CVS Autoconf, acgeneral.m4, macro AC_TRY_CPP. Maybe

Hi everyone,
Back in July, I followed the thread "AC_DEFINE-descriptions with 2.14*"
which was concerned with whether or not you could only use literal
arguents to AC_DEFINE_UNQUOTED. That discussion seemed to fizzle out
