since your log ends like this, bash had to misparse the following
command, which is
        echo=`$as_echo '\a\b\c\f\n\r\t\v\"\'`
(This should be on line 504 of testsuite.dir/004/script.)

This looks like a bug in your shell.  You might be able to reproduce
it with the following simple script:

#!/bin/sh
as_echo='printf %s\n'
echo=`$as_echo '\a\b\c\f\n\r\t\v\"\'`

Generally, I tend to think that you have discovered a bug in (your
version of) bash, not in the Autoconf.

Hope this helps,
        Stepan
