# AC_PROG_GNU_M4
# --------------
# Check for GNU M4, at least 1.4.6 (all earlier versions had bugs in
# trace support and regexp support):
# https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnu-utils/2006-11/msg00096.html
# https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2009-07/msg00023.html
# Also, check whether --error-output (through 1.4.x) or --debugfile (2.0)
# is supported, and AC_SUBST M4_DEBUGFILE accordingly.
# Also avoid versions of m4 that trigger strstr bugs.
