Michael-Hennecke commented 6 months ago

When using autoconf/2.71 (and automake/1.16.5), the io500 build fails with errors like the following (autoconf/2.69 and automake/1.15.1 works fine):

Hi Michael, can you state exactly what you are doing? I get even different output using the exact same versions of tools.
