Regarding logf, I tracked it down, thanks to the configure file
and related outputs that Carlos provided.
The problem occurs only with Autoconf versions < 2.64. Carlos used
version 2.63. In the testdir's configure file generated, there are
the following lines:
2.63
36684:for ac_func in logf
83846: LOG_LIBM="$POW_LIBM"
88089:for ac_func in logf
2.64
23667: LOG_LIBM="$POW_LIBM"
23977: for ac_func in logf
52057: LOG_LIBM="$POW_LIBM"
54518: for ac_func in logf
2.65
23694: LOG_LIBM="$POW_LIBM"
24004: for ac_func in logf
52084: LOG_LIBM="$POW_LIBM"
54545: for ac_func in logf
2.66
23694: LOG_LIBM="$POW_LIBM"
24004: for ac_func in logf
52071: LOG_LIBM="$POW_LIBM"
54532: for ac_func in logf
The 'for ac_func in logf' lines come from AC_CHECK_FUNCS([logf]) inside
gl_FUNC_LOGF and is immediately preceded by a use of $LOG_LIBM. This
variable LOG_LIBM is meant to be initialized by AC_REQUIRE([gl_FUNC_LOG]),
since gl_FUNC_LOG contains gl_COMMON_DOUBLE_MATHFUNC([log]) which expands
to 'LOG_LIBM="$POW_LIBM"'.
The 'LOG_LIBM="$POW_LIBM"' lines come from the gl_COMMON_DOUBLE_MATHFUNC([log])
in gl_FUNC_LOG.
So, there are two copies of gl_FUNC_LOGF in the expansion. In Autoconf
version >= 2.64, both are complete with prerequisites. But with
Autoconf 2.63, in the first case, the prerequisites are not in the right
order.
Incidentally, autoconf >= 2.64 also reports a warning:
configure.ac:2592: warning: AC_REQUIRE: `gl_FUNC_LOG' was expanded before it
was required
glm4/logl.m4:7: gl_FUNC_LOGL is expanded from...
glm4/log10l.m4:7: gl_FUNC_LOG10L is expanded from...
configure.ac:41: gl_INIT is expanded from...
configure.ac:2592: the top level
The attached patch fixes this warning and leads to a correct configure
file with autoconf 2.63.
But this warning can reoccur again. We have two choices:
(a) Review all AC_REQUIREs in gnulib, and work around the old Autoconf bug
in each case,
(b) Require Autoconf >= 2.64. The problem with the older Autoconf releases
is that they have an AC_REQUIRE ordering bug *and* don't warn.

This is quite some work, just for a workaround.
Additionally, transforming an gl_FUNC_FOO to AC_REQUIRE([gl_FUNC_FOO])
somewhat defeats the conditional dependencies: gl_FUNC_FOO will be
executed, regardless whether module 'foo' is actually needed on the
given platform or not.
Regarding option (b), note that Automake 1.13 will already require
Autoconf >= 2.65. Here are the release dates of autoconf:
2.63 2008-09-09
2.64 2009-07-26
2.65 2009-11-21
2.66 2010-07-02
So, version 2.64 is already nearly 3 years old.
I would therefore propose (b), that is, to bump the required Autoconf
version in the DEPENDENCIES file and gnulib-tool to 2.64.
Opinions? Objections?
