Also, I see two uses of @value{UPDATED} in m4.texi, but your patch only removed one; is the other one not an issue?
You are right. I don't know. For some reason, only the patch I posted before was necessary at least for the 1.4.19 version, as shown here: https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/unstable/amd64/m4.html Those tests check the produced .debs (m4 and m4-doc in this case). The m4 package contains the info manual, and the m4-doc package contains the manual in html format. If the variation only happened in the .dvi or the .pdf, for example, the above tests would still mark the Debian package as reproducible, as we don't distribute those artifacts in binary packages. I have not tested the new snapshot yet for reproducibility issues, but will probably try for the next snapshot. Thanks.
