D'oh! You are absolutely right!!! It was my fault.
I downloaded the right patch to my laptop but *applied* the patch I
wrote yesterday instead (I did "patch < ../configure.patch" instead of
"patch < ../configure.in.patch"). Sorry!!! This friday is another
perfect monday to me. :-)
Indeed, your patch applies cleanly to both configure.in and aclocal.m4:
$ patch < ../configure.in.patch
Hmm... Looks like a unified diff to me...
The text leading up to this was:

Patching file configure.in using Plan A...

Hmm... The next patch looks like a unified diff to me...
The text leading up to this was:

...well, I applied correctly the *wrong* patch! :-)
Now it works *just fine* and it builds cleanly:
[...]
sed -f man.sed sortm.man > sortm.1
sed -f man.sed whatnow.man > whatnow.1
sed -f man.sed whom.man > whom.1
sed -f man.sed mh-alias.man > mh-alias.5
sed -f man.sed mh-draft.man > mh-draft.5
sed -f man.sed mh-format.man > mh-format.5
sed -f man.sed mh-mail.man > mh-mail.5
sed -f man.sed mh-profile.man > mh-profile.5
sed -f man.sed mh-sequence.man > mh-sequence.5
sed -f man.sed mh-tailor.man > mh-tailor.5
sed -f man.sed mts.conf.man > mts.conf.5
sed -f man.sed ap.man > ap.8
sed -f man.sed conflict.man > conflict.8
sed -f man.sed dp.man > dp.8
sed -f man.sed fmtdump.man > fmtdump.8
sed -f man.sed mh-mts.man > mh-mts.8
sed -f man.sed post.man > post.8
Thanks a lot!!! The patch is a fine fix to this problem.

If I can help you, or any other in this mailing list, in some other way
let me know. I will be glad to do my best to contribute to this fine
software project.
Best regards,
Igor.
