I cannot reproduce problem (in either dev-libs/libksba-1.4.0 or dev-libs/libksba-1.5.0).
Interestingly, output of `gpg-error-config --version` contains "-unknown" suffix, so maybe it was misparsed:

$ x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gpg-error-config --version
1.39-unknown
$ 


...
checking if gcc supports -fvisibility=hidden... yes
checking for gpg-error-config... /usr/bin/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gpg-error-config
checking for gpgrt-config... /usr/bin/gpgrt-config
configure: Use gpgrt-config with /usr/lib64 as gpg-error-config
checking for GPG Error - version >= 1.8... yes (1.39-unknown)
checking for ANSI C header files... (cached) yes
...


Anyway this package does not use eautoreconf() or eautoconf(), so problem was probably unrelated to Autoconf 2.70.

Let's mark it as invalid unless someone can explain to me how I can reproduce the issue.

retested - no longer repoducible
