The likelihood of this being a sh(1) bug is pretty much nil. The ports cluster builds the entire ports collection about once a week. There are currently 11,901 ports with a GNU configure script, so the ports team should have encountered this by now. Judging from the error messages you quote, it's more likely that there is something wrong with your installed version of m4, or that you have installed a package with a buggy aclocal script which confuses m4.
