autoreconfig -v is run, the new configure file is made, but
I get this configure error
checking for gethostname function prototype in unistd.h...
./configure: line 3828: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'
./configure: line 3828: `*GNU*'
Your macro still lacks proper quotation. You need to [quote] at least
the third argument of the AC_CACHE_CHECK call, but better all others
too, as well as each argument of AC_EGREP_HEADER.
If that still causes the error above, then it would be helpful to see,
say, a dozen lines of the configure script around the line where the
error occurs.
Cheers,

Ralf,
First I dont really understand "proper quotation"
because I dont really understand this language.
Here are the dozen lines from the conigure file
IFS=$as_save_IFS
test -z "$as_dir" && as_dir=.
for ac_prog in grep ggrep; do
for ac_exec_ext in '' $ac_executable_extensions; do
ac_path_GREP="$as_dir/$ac_prog$ac_exec_ext"
{ test -f "$ac_path_GREP" && $as_test_x "$ac_path_GREP"; } ||
continue
# Check for GNU ac_path_GREP and select it if it is found.
