Hi,

I'm trying to build not yet announced autoconf 2.59 from 
http://www.lrde.epita.fr/~akim/download/autoconf-2.59.tar.gz
but I'm getting this one after unpacking + ./configure && make:

starting from 17 line:
# Support unset when possible.
if ((MAIL=60; unset MAIL) || exit) >/dev/null 2>&1; then
  as_unset=unset
else
  as_unset=false
fi

This happens with pdksh as /bin/sh and doesn't happen with bash as /bin/sh.

Seems that changing it to
if ( ( MAIL=60; unset MAIL ) || exit ) >/dev/null 2>&1; then
fixes the problem (note spaces between ,,('' ,,('' ).
