    _______________________________________________________

Details:

With autoconf master 8a0900 (~2020-03-18), nasm 2.14.02 is failing like this:

checking for uintptr_t... yes
./configure: line 6400: syntax error near unexpected token `do'
./configure: line 6400: `do :'

Those line numbers are messed up because there isn't a do token around line
6400.

If I revert to autoconf 2.69, nasm builds successfully.
