hi,friends
After `git clone git://git.sv.gnu.org/guile.git`, `./autogen` reports:
m4: illegal option -- -
usage: m4 [-d flags] [-t name] [-gs] [-D name[=value]]...
[-U name]... [-I dirname]... file...
on my FreeBSD 9.1 box.
Regards!

No additional info; let's close. Please file a new bug if you have
errors building Guile from git again. Thanks!
