Hi, Libbacktrace fails to run “make check" on macOS (*-apple-darwin21), where the system make is GNU Make 3.81. But I think it would occur on all platforms that are not ELF and use make < 4. Running `make check` leads to this failure:
elf_32.c:144:26: error: extra tokens at end of #undef directive [-Werror]
144 | #undef BACKTRACE_ELF_SIZE#define BACKTRACE_ELF_SIZE 32
| ^
where the invalid elf_32.c is generated by this command:
SEARCH='#error "Unknown BACKTRACE_ELF_SIZE"'; \
REPLACE='#undef BACKTRACE_ELF_SIZE\
#define BACKTRACE_ELF_SIZE'; \
/usr/bin/sed "s/^$SEARCH\$/$REPLACE 32/" \
/tmp/gcc-darwin-arm64/libbacktrace/elf.c \
> elf_32.c.tmp
mv elf_32.c.tmp elf_32.c
This tries to have a newline inside the REPLACE string, and pass it to sed.
This fails with GNU Make < 4. And GCC requires "GNU make version 3.80 (or
later)".
The portable solution is given in the autoconf manual:

Attached is a patch that fixes it. Tested on x86_64-apple-darwin21.
OK to commit?
