Hi Paul,

I found that at the commit immediately preceding 2ca0d57, building
automake-1.16.1 can successfully run the tests t/autohdr4.sh and
t/autohdr-subdir-pr12495.sh.

I cannot build commit 2ca0d57.  It fails with:
autom4te_perllibdir='.'/lib AUTOM4TE_CFG='lib/autom4te.cfg'
./bin/autom4te -B '.'/lib -B '.'/lib         --language M4sh --cache
'' \
  --melt ./bin/autoconf.as -o bin/autoconf.in
Undefined subroutine &main::open_quote called at ./bin/autom4te line 261.
Makefile:2017: recipe for target 'bin/autoconf.in' failed
make[1]: *** [bin/autoconf.in] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory '/tmp/autoconf'
Makefile:859: recipe for target 'all' failed
make: *** [all] Error 2

I can build the commit immediately following 2ca0d57, but building
automake-1.16.1 reports that the tests in question fail.

My question is: should the problem be fixed in autoconf by fixing
whatever goes wrong with commit 2ca0d57?  Or, should the problem be
fixed in automake?

Thank you.
