>Description:
Building of gnutls from ports breaks.
It requires certain version of m4 to be installed.
It breaks with m4-1.4.1, but started working after upgrade to m4-1.4.11,1.
So, somewhere on the way between these two version something got changed.

This needs to be reflected in the port requirements.

Also, despite the fact that I have autoconf-2.62 installed, 
make finds 2.61 - I suspect this may go away if INDEX-5 is corrected.
(I have ports updated via portsnap on 2008-06-30 early morning)

You have another version of autoconf.  It may work, but is not guaranteed to.
If you have problems, you may need to regenerate the build system entirely.
To do so, use the procedure documented by the package, typically `autoreconf'.

>How-To-Repeat:
	See above
>Fix:
	correct requirements for the m4 version in the port.
	also, consider correcting the required version of autoconf (cosmetic)
