+This version doesn't require patching to build on BeOS. {{{make check}}} reports some problems however:
+
+{{{
+Skipped checks were:
+  ./070.changeword ./071.changeword ./072.changeword ./073.changeword ./074.changeword ./120.sysval ./121.maketemp
+Failed checks were:
+  ./115.platform_m:out
+}}}
+
+The generated {{{m4}}} binary probably works fine however.
+
+{{{platform_m:out}}} doesn't fail with newer versions of m4. Apparently BeOS is detected as a UNIX-like OS from m4 1.4.8 on. I'm not sure what's the cause of this. I would expect to see a change in {{{m4.h}}}.
