Producing configuration scripts using Autoconf requires GNU m4. You
must install GNU m4 (version 1.1 or later, preferably 1.3 or later
for better performance) before configuring Autoconf, so that
Autoconf's configure script can find it. The configuration scripts

packages' configuration headers or Makefile.in files. You can use the
program `autoheader' to automatically create a configuration header
from a `configure.in', based on the information in `acconfig.h'.
