Hi Gary,
Hallo Ralf,
I don't quite realize yet what's broken here, but with Autoconf 2.62 (from FreeBSD /usr/local/bin), Libtool bootstrap does not work, see below.
I see something similar when using m4-1.4.5, so I suspect a bug in old m4 that has since been fixed. What version of m4 are you using?
I had also thought I was underquoting somewhere because I couldn't get M4SH_GETOPTS to inject tabs into the shell loop and line the generated shell code loop up more properly; I wasn't able to track that down, but assuming M4 is not the culprit, then this bug indicates that there might actually be an overquoted expression somewhere in getopts.m4sh :- ( I'll take another look later today, and see if I can get to the bottom of it.
Another bug is that the bootstrap script doesn't abort upon error, I'm going to fix that one right away now by adding 'set -e'.
Agreed. Cheers -- Gary V. Vaughan (address@hidden)
