[Bug-gnubg] Problem compiling gnubg in RHEL 5

[Stelios Togias]

Hi,

I'm trying to compile this snapshot:  
gnubg-source-SNAPSHOT-20081004.tar.gz on RHEL 5
and getting the following error upon ./configure:
configure.in:101: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_MSG_ERROR
     If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
     See the Autoconf documentation.
configure.in:102: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_MSG_WARN

Now I'm not experienced in linux in general. I think I've resolved all 
dependancies and done everything correctly.

Is it possible there is a problem with the snapshot or am I missing 
something much more basic.

any help appreciated

thanks
stelios
