Hi Paul, All that I can derive from that thread is that it is not an autoconf problem. Well, I can also derive that if I tell someone to simply remove the ``|#_!!_#|'' from config.status then all will be fine. I won't do that, of course. I need to know why autoconf decided to leave its internal marker in the config.status output. So, it is not autoconf's fault, and it must be mine, but there are no docs that explain the cause of the problem. It is also difficult to Google for special characters. What do I do? Thank you!
