Dear Ilya, Sorry for taking so long to reply to this message but I haven't been able to devote much time to XEmacs recently. The problem you report is unfortunately a bug introduced into autoconf 2.60 and is located in the boilerplate code produced by autoconf, which makes it difficult for us to fix. I have submitted a patch to the autoconf developers, but in the meantime the only workaround is to ensure that configure is generated by autoconf 2.59. I'll add a reminder of this in the PROBLEMS file. Thanks for the bug report.
