| When using autoconf 2.13 on Debian GNU/Linux 2.2, I ran into a problem
| with the 'configure'.  I finally tracked it down to this construct:
| 
|   cat <<\EOF
|   [whatever]
|   EOF
| 
| When changing this to
| 
|   cat <<EOF
|   [whatever]
|   EOF
| 
| the configure file started working.
| 
| I'm not sure which macros that fails.  In my case it seem to be the
| code running ./configure in subdirectories, but there where several
| other places as well.

Err, I can't see any bug in here.  It seems to me you are exploring
the Bourne shell :)

| BTW: The email address for bug reports in v2.50 README is
|   wrong. address@hidden do not work, and should be replaced by
|   address@hidden

Thanks, fixed.
