Hi Michael,

What does ``m4 --version'' return on your debian install?
I'm no dev, however, if you have a valid m4 install, you shouldn't need to
have m4 bootstrapped.

If m4 is not installed, you may want to do so (as well as bison, patch,
...).

Otherwise, you could apply some patch to m4 during the bootstrap process.
For instance, this bug has been fixed in Gentoo with this patch
https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/plain/sys-devel/m4/files/m4-1.4.18-glibc228.patch

Best,

--
