Hi

I believe the m4 macro package in freebsd 2.2.5 is out of date.  When I
rebuild my system with make world, and then use autoconf, I get a message
saying that a later version is required.  So then I grab the newest
release of m4 from ftp.cdrom.com:/pub/gnu, compile this, install,  and
then everything works OK. I just wanted the developers to know in case
this component needs updating.

Thanks, DONN
