[LUG] M4 insanity

Can anyone succinctly expain recent changes to autoconf?

I'm trying to rebuild some software (and merge some stuff which depends
on Lex).

The author of patch is guru status - so I'm assuming his "AM_PROG_LEX"
addition to configure.ac worked when he did it - even if he is a tad
lack about details sometimes.... Now I get a "possibly undefined macro"
error....

Well it may well be undefined, but the changes also spat warning all
over about the previously working AC_CREATE_STDINT_H, and attempt to use
AX_CREATE_STDINT_H(src/GCint.h) from sourceforge died with "syntax
error" at or about 'src/GCint.g'.

The usual sources of information (i.e. the author and the autoconf group
are particuarly unforthcoming).....

Argh - I always hated C, this is doing nothing to encourage me to use it.
