Thanks for the report.  That particular test is known
to be racy, and fails for me about 20% of the time,
and more particularly when my machine is under heavy
load.  It may be a bug in bash, rather than in autoconf.
We'd welcome more help in diagnosing the root cause
of the race, and any ideas in making the test (or even
autotest itself) more robust in the face of the race
that is being triggered.

That said, a failure of test 193 is not fatal to the
use of autoconf 2.66.
