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
;)

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 ...

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:

but beside from that everything configures fine.

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.
