autoconf-2.49c, libtool-1.3.5 and Cygwin

[Earnie Boyd]

I decided to give autoconf-2.49c a try on Cygwin.

In configuring the libtool package I
  cd libtool-1.3.5
  autoupdate
  autoconf
  cd libltdl
  autoupdate
  autoconf  ;# Reports error.

The errors are:

configure.in:109: error: AC_REQUIRE: cannot be used outside of an
m4_defun'd macro
configure.in:109: AC_CANONICAL_HOST is required by...
configure.in:109: the top level.

I also execute the autoheader in the libltdl directory and get an error:

autoheader: running /usr/local/bin/autoconf -l . to trace from
configure.in
autoheader: sourcing /tmp/ah309/traces.sh
autoheader: error: shell error while sourcing /tmp/ah309/trace.sh

The script creates traces.sh and executes trace.sh.

Cheers,
Earnie.
