Hi, I modified a patch to stop the check. Please run `emerge sync` and remerge a2ps, and tell me whether you still get the error or not.
I synced, he applies an autoconf.gentoo patch, but the bug moves down a bit ;) checking for mbrlen... (cached) yes checking for limits.h...

Thanks for testing. I updated autoconf patch. Please do emerge sync, try again, and report it back. I hope it will bring you further ;)
well, the bug moved back tot he original one. this is evil somehow ... and I just wanted to compile xfce4 actually ... checking for size_t... (cached) yes checking for pid_t...

My bad :-( I forced autoconf version to 2.5, so please emerge sync and try again. If you are in hurry, you may test a2ps-4.13c which doesn't have these autoconf issue (it is still ~x86 though).
okay, it now passes the configure part :) thought I prints out some errors at the begining which do not stop the configure ... before the first configure run: aclocal.m4:61: error: m4_defn: undefined macro: _m4_divert_diversion autoconf/c.m4:853: AC_C_BACKSLASH_A is expanded from... aclocal.m4:61: the top level autom4te-2.57: /usr/bin/m4 failed with exit status: 1 aclocal.m4:61: error: m4_defn: undefined macro: _m4_divert_diversion autoconf/c.m4:853: AC_C_BACKSLASH_A is expanded from... aclocal.m4:61: the top level autom4te-2.57: /usr/bin/m4 failed with exit status: 1 before the second configure run: cd . && /bin/sh /var/tmp/portage/a2ps-4.13b-r5/work/a2ps-4.13/auxdir/missing --run automake --gnu Makefile Makefile.am:19: require version 1.4a, but have 1.4-p6 WARNING: `automake' is missing on your system.

Thanks for testing. I'll try to reduce those warnings as less as possible. I can reproduce the same warnings, so it will be much easier to solve ;) I close this bug since it now only prints warnings.
