Thanks to all that helped. Here was the original question:


I'm trying to compile sendmail 8.9.2 for my 4.0d box, but I keep getting :

ERROR: /usr/bin/m4 failed; You may need a newer version of M4, at least as
new a
s System V or GNU

so I went to gnu.org, got the latest m4, which seems really old, version
4-1.4, compiled it, installed it, get the same error.


thanks to the following, who all told me that I was executing the wrong
M4, which was exactly the problem.
