I can't make anything out of this.
I suspect this is an M4 bug since it works on most platforms.  
Which M4 version are you using?  Has it been patched in some ways?

Sorry, for late answering. But it doesn't work for me :

address@hidden [tmp/autoconf]> cat > configure.in <<EOF
AC_INIT([am__sinclude], [1.0])
EOF
address@hidden [tmp/autoconf]> autoconf
/local/bin/m4: memory exhausted

I instructed m4 to trace all macro calls in that case :

address@hidden [tmp/autoconf]> /local/bin/m4 --nesting-limit=1024 
--include=/local/share/autoconf --define=m4_warnings=syntax,syntax,syntax 
--debug=aflqt --error-output=autom4te.cache/traces.0t 
--reload-state=/local/share/autoconf/autoconf/autoconf.m4f configure.in 
</dev/null >autom4te.cache/output.0t
/local/bin/m4: memory exhausted

It seems that there is indeed a problem with `AC_PACKAGE_TARNAME'. The
trace file is attached if someome want to have a look.
