Never heard of it.

Please run
  ./config.status --debug

manually and inspect the leftover scripts.  Post them, or parts thereof,
if you are having trouble.

The error indicates that you are using an older version of Autoconf.
If this turns out to be a quoting bug in code provided from Autoconf
(which I cannot tell yet), then you might want to just update to a
recent version.

Cheers,
Ralf
