Tried. Didn't want to mess much with it so only error messages I got

C:\Devel\autoconf\gnu\acnf250s>sh
sh-2.04$ pwd
c:/Devel/autoconf/gnu/acnf250s
sh-2.04$ autoconf
NONE:0: /dev/env/DJDIR/bin/m4.exe: `changeword' from frozen file not found in bu
iltin table!
Target of redirect is not a filename.
configure.in:3: error: m4_file_append: cannot write: e:/tmp/ac6782/forbidden.rx
configure.in:3: the top level
sh-2.04$ echo $BASH_VERSION
2.04.7(1)-release
sh-2.04$

Old autoconf worked without problems. 

Installed both m4 and autoconf-2.50  from sourecs and nothing changed
