Hi, Rich
I do not know about m4 macro origin.
The current libvirt needs to run on latest version(autoconf 2.60 or later).
For this purpose, m4-1.4.5 or later is needed
If I install native m4-1.4.7, it cannot not compiling autoconf.
Thanks

I wonder if this is a bug in our use of m4 macros?
Anyway, thanks for this. An easier way to solve this whole problem
would be to add the mingw32 cross compiler to Fedora. See discussion
here:
http://www.redhat.com/archives/rhl-devel-list/2008-April/msg01224.html
If we had this, we could relatively easily build libvirt DLLs / EXEs
on our Fedora boxes and ship them through the main site.
Rich.
