Re: stdint.h: #if with no expression

[Tim Rühsen]

The gettext (0.19.8.1-4) package contains pretty old m4 files.

With 'autoreconf -fi' all that old stuff is copied into m4/ though there
are newer versions from gnulib in gl/m4 and lib/gl/m4/.

Removing m4/ and later on using autoreconf without -fi does the job
(resp. doesn't copy unwanted stuff into m4/).


With Best Regards, Tim
