Hi,
I currently git this error with pike7.8 git head: checking for sys/param.h... (cached) yes /root/pike3/pike/src/modules/Image/configure: line 3380: syntax error near unexpected token `;;' /root/pike3/pike/src/modules/Image/configure: line 3380: ` ac_cv_path_GREP="$ac_path_GREP" ac_path_GREP_found=:;;'

Try an older autoconf version.

autoconf 2.13, autoconf 2.59 and autoconf 2.64 from debian packages all produce the same error. Which one do you use?
2.61 seems to do fine.
$ dpkg -l | fgrep autoconf hi autoconf 2.61-8 automatic configure script builder
I had to manually put it on hold in Debian to prevent it from being updated to the latest testing release (which is broken (again)).
Hmmm, sorry for the noise.
It seems that the debian package autoconf2.64 works. However somehow deleting and installing autoconfxxx left a "autoconf2.50" binary installed, which the pike run_autoconfig script seems to prefers and causes the error.
