The M4 used at autoconf runtime is not that used at its installation
time. I would reinstall M4 since obviously your install-time m4 is
experimental, and your runtime m4 is the vanilla GNU M4 1.4.

What is your platform? How does

Hm... What do you people think about this?
After all, the core code of projects is not supposed to contain any
HAVE_. Rather, AC_REPLACE_FUNCS etc. should be used, system.h for
other issues, so it seems to me that this is a better solution than
having #if HAVE_ in the main code, but worse than

This suggests that this works, but that the shell somehow
doesn't let its 'not found' message be redirected :-(
How about

Sorry, I was unclean. I'll give it another shot. I have this structure

../pkgB
src contains my application. Platform A does not provide the third party
pkgA which I need in the application, whereas Platform B does. Ditto for
pkgB. Some platforms provide it and others do

This change (or something like it) needs to be installed at gnu.org.
I guess I can install the change in the master copy, but I don't know
how it gets propagated after that.
You should run the makefile in /gd/gnuorg so as to recreate
