  Target Milestone: ---

using buildroot on slackware 14.2_x86_64 I get this error:
checking for GNU M4 that supports accurate traces... configure: error: no
acceptable m4 could be found in $PATH.
GNU M4 1.4.6 or later is required; 1.4.16 or newer is recommended.
GNU M4 1.4.15 uses a buggy replacement strstr on some systems.
Glibc 2.9 - 2.12 and GNU M4 1.4.11 - 1.4.15 have another strstr bug.
package/pkg-generic.mk:206: recipe for target
'/usr/src/buildroot-2017.02/output/build/host-libtool-2.4.6/.stamp_configured'
failed
make: ***
[/usr/src/buildroot-2017.02/output/build/host-libtool-2.4.6/.stamp_configured]
Error 1

But I've m4 version 1.4.17 in path
root at desktopdbsm:/usr/src/buildroot-2017.02# echo $PATH
/usr/src/buildroot-2016.11.2/output/host/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/lib64/qt/bin:/usr/share/texmf/bin
root at desktopdbsm:/usr/src/buildroot-2017.02# type m4
