thanks for the pointer.

Got a mail from another user about it and just tried to reproduce the
problem.

But i don't get the point in forcing users to upgrade there toolchain if
earlier versions of tools could build the configure script just fine in
the end...

I could make some tests to get the right requirements if you are
accepting patches against configure.ac which change the requirements to
versions which are more suitable for the macros used...

BTW i got stable3 up running just fine on our test environment...
