Hi Eric,

`printenv' yields:

 There is nothing Autotools specific that I can see there.

Also, there is no `./share/config.site' under the prefix directory of
`/tmp/'.

If there is no other way that the `autom4te' command is being manually told
to output `m4trace' messages, then what else could be causing it? Could the
binary be being configured incorrectly when it is built?

Cheers,

Jeff.
