Index: ChangeLog
from  Gary V. Vaughan  <address@hidden>

        Getting rid of the annoying bug with configure --enable-debug,
        which spewed -e: command not found errors.  This was an interaction
        between libtool-1.5's LT_AC_COMPILER_OPTION, and config/debug.m4.
        You'll need to re-bootstrap the m4 tree with cvs libtool (HEAD or
        branch-1-5) to get the full fix.

        * config/debug.m4 (M4_AC_CHECK_DEBUGGING): Require libtools version
        of AC_LIBTOOL_COMPILER_OPTION (which now requires LT_AC_PROG_SED),
        and then use the probed value of $SED.
        (AC_LIBTOOL_COMPILER_OPTION): Removed. Don't conditionally define
        this, it messes up the AC_REQUIRE stack.
