[GNU Autoconf 2.69] testsuite: 209 failed

[Stewart, Adam James]

Hello,

I ran make check after installing Autoconf 2.69 with GCC 5.3.0. The only test 
that fails for me is 209. It fails regardless of whether I run the tests in 
parallel (make -j16 check) or serial (make -j1 check). I found this post:

If this test is so unreliable, shouldn't it be removed?
