A new release of m4, 1.4.16-1, will soon be available for download on a
mirror near you, leaving 1.4.15-1 as previous.
NEWS
=3D=3D=3D=3D
This is a new upstream release, with upstream NEWS attached. See also
/usr/share/doc/m4/.
You must rebuild from source if you want the experimental changeword
feature enabled, as using it can slow down normal operation, and since
it will disappear from the eventual m4 2.0.
DESCRIPTION
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
m4 is an implementation of the traditional Unix macro processor. It is
mostly SVR4 compatible although it has some extensions (for example,
handling more than 9 positional parameters to macros). GNU m4 also has
built-in functions for including files, running shell commands, doing
arithmetic, etc.

* Noteworthy changes in release 1.4.16 (2011-03-01) [stable]
** Fix regressions in the `index' builtin. On glibc platforms, this
avoids false positives from a strstr bug in glibc 2.9 through 2.12;
on many other platforms, it fixes two separate regressions, a false
positive introduced in 1.4.11 and a false negative in 1.4.15.
** A number of portability improvements inherited from gnulib.
