In particular it just returned the result that -2/2 = 2147483647 instead of -1. This is a known bug in GNU m4-1.4.9. Please install a non-broken m4. ... _______________ OTOH, this m4 version is 'stable' in portage. Is it worth to mark 1.4.9 as 'unstable', or have I missed something? vapier@gentoo.org 2007-07-04 18:15:54 0000 you forgot `emerge --info` also, post information on how to reproduce this issue over
