You are right, it is looking for the GNU version of m4, I tried to make a ln to m4 called gm4 and the gmake called it correctly, but it exited with a gm4 ./config.m4 ./config.c.in > config.c-t gm4: missing right quote so I think I might have to track down the GNU m4 to get this to work.. :( -Sean ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Sean J.
