I have a configure created on linux but run on solaris.
The configure runs fine but if a Makefile is deemed out of

Ofcourse there is no /usr/bin/m4 on my system and /usr/local/bin/m4 is
version 1.4. I can work around by setting M4=/usr/local/bin/m4 in my
environment.
but is there a "better" way using some autoconf macros to get this done ?
The solution is to configure on the host where you will be running
'make'. Create a build directory and configure from outside the
source tree to allow doing builds on both Linux and Solaris.
