Please use Autoconf 2.59 instead.  It will not affect your test suite results,
but it is definitely the better version.

This is fixed in CVS as of 2003-12-29.

This causes most of the test failures.  Why does your Perl flock(file, LOCK_EX)
return EINVAL on a file below the Autoconf build directory?

Thanks for the report.
