Oh?  That's good news, I guess.  :-)

I'm trying to build the smallest reproduction case I can and
unfortunately am running up against my autoconf ignorance.

I have a small test so far.  It's certainly not complete but I am trying
to build it up gradually so as to include only what I need to reproduce
the problem:

]],[],[echo foo])])

As you can see it's similar to your test case but when I try to autoconf
it I get:

$ autoconf
configure.ac:18: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_LANG_SOURCE
      If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
      See the Autoconf documentation.

Your test case autoconf's just fine.

Any idea what the problem is here?
