Hi
I already upgraded the m4 package to use 1.4.13 and that does not help ...
Will have to do more checks, it seems several guys have this problem.

Exactly, that's the whole point. We build our own m4 version in
output/host/usr/bin. Maybe a fix is to upgrade our m4 version, but I would
prefer to understand the problem first.

Presumably because Ubuntu is odd/different/newer than other dists?
The config.log output is not very verbose, so you'll need to do the
configure tests by hand to see what fails - E.G.:
output/usr/vin/m4 -F conftest.m4f </dev/null should not output anything and
produce a conftest.m4f file.
echo 'changequote(<,>)indir(<ifdef>,mac,bug)patsubst(a,\(b\)\|\(a\),\1)dnl'
|\
output/host/usr/bin/m4 --trace=mac
should not output anything.
Could you test that?
