I've reproduced this locally, and hope to have it fixed soon (eek, my
day is almost over, and I'm still stalled with getting m4 1.4.17
released, because that turned up some needed gnulib work; so it looks
like autoconf 2.70 will have a 2013 copyright, rather than my original
goal of releasing today).

Hmm, I wasn't able to reproduce this one yet; probably indicates I need
to install go on my devel machine, but even then, I have no idea what to
do there.

This looks weird - why is 'autoconf --version' being tested twice?
Hopefully the fix is easy.

Is this indicative of a problem with your environment, rather than the
autoconf testsuite?

Or, maybe it is indicative of missing shell quoting in the macros for Go
compilation.  Is this something you can research a bit more?
