I thought that it would be useful to have working autotools under MinGW

/usr/local/bin/m4 being GNU m4 1.4.15.
make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/bfriesen/mingw/autoconf-2.67/lib/m4sugar'

The system cannot find the path specified.
autom4te: need GNU m4 1.4 or later: /usr/local/bin/m4
Could this be a problem with trying to find a program with a trailing CR
in the name (that is, looking for m4\r instead of m4)? Also, are you
setting the M4 environment variable?
I don't have an MSYS setup, so I'm not sure how easy it would be for me
to reproduce this.
