2006-06-14 Thread Ben Pfaff
I've seen a flurry of Debian BTS emails around this bug, but none of them have made it clear to me what I should do about it. In the long term, I suspect that the Autoconf macros in the apr-util package should be fixed, and that autoconf-doc should document that $@ may be changed by some macros.
