Hi Dave,
autoconf 2.69 is supposed to be minimal supported version for OpenJDK build.

Hi again all ,
JIC it's of any interest, I've downloaded, built and subsequently used
up-levelled versions of autoconf & m4 (to 2.69 & 1.4.16) - at which point
the aforementioned problem disappears. It should be noted that no such
problem was observed on Ubuntu.

Hi all ,
Having just taken an RHEL 6.5 update on my laptop, I'm no longe able to
run the build - I see the following error ...
Autoconf found: /usr/bin/autoconf
Generating generated-configure.sh with /usr/bin/autoconf
stdin:35: error: m4_defn: undefined macro: _m4_divert_diversion
stdin:35: the top level
autom4te: /usr/bin/m4 failed with exit status: 1
From some Googling results, I notice that similar errors have been
encountered elsewhere (none of which are OpenJDK related) and appears to be
symptomatic of a version mis-match between autoconf and m4 - however, given
I'm running the autoconf/m4 combination of v2.63/v1.4.13, which had
previously worked, I wondered if there are any wise souls out there who
might be able to point me in the right direction for a solution WRT OpenJDK.
Many TIA ,
