My original problem is regarding bootstrapping.The "latest" m4 commit c09a1=
87c50f2f74e89d4d0991bdbd2c6846cc707 bootstrap result:success with Debian's =
native version "m4 (GNU M4) 1.4.16"fail with a newly built m4 version "m4 (=
GNU M4) 1.9a.643-c09a1-dirty":*****$ ./bootstrap --skip-po -v bootstra=

uld pull it from "AC_INIT"=2C but I could override it there=2C which I just=

ets built so I think something is going on there. =
