Trying to run autogen

[Erik Moe]

I’m new to autogen/autoconf.  I’m trying to build urjag on macOS Sierra: 
svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/urjtag/svn/trunk.  I initially tried to build using the 
latest autoconf, automake, gettext provided by homebrew, but I keep getting an 
error "unknown channel m4trace: -1- AS_VAR_APPEND(ac_configure_args, " 
'$ac_arg’”)”.  I then built my own copies of autoconf, automake and gettext 
using the versions that were specified in the configure.ac: autoconf-2.64, 
automake-1.10 and gettext-0.17.  Either way I get essentially the same error.  
Could someone give me some direction as I don’t have much experience in this 
area.  I’ve attached the configure.ac file.
