Can I ask post here a patch that will allow PHP to compile with autoconf
version> 2.6? I think it will be useful to many users.

I spent quite a while on it. I couldn't come up with a viable way to
support both 
pre and post autoconf-2.64 so it is either/or at this point. Every
distro has pre-
2.64, not everyone has post 2.64. We will eventually be able to make a
clean 
break, but it definitely won't be in 5.3.

This annoying bug is still there. How about solutions?

This got lost when we re-branched trunk from 5_3

This fix is only in HEAD.  You need autoconf <2.60 for 5.3

I'm having this problem with a fresh checkout (revision 293858) from 
the PHP_5_3 branch. I running on Mac OS X 10.6.2 and have autoconf 
2.65 from macports.

$ ./buildconf
$ ./configure
cat: confdefs.h: No such file or directory
./configure: line 389: ac_fn_c_try_run: command not found
./configure: line 405: 5: Bad file descriptor
./configure: line 406: 6: Bad file descriptor
cat: confdefs.h: No such file or directory
./configure: line 445: ac_fn_c_try_run: command not found
..........

I'm not having the problem when running configure on the 5.3.1 tar 
package.
