Yes, we are aware that m4 is not compliant, and yes, we intend to make m4
2.0 compliant.  CVS head already supports multiple non-builtin arguments;
however, correctly supporting the mix of builtin and non-builtin arguments
is a bit more difficult.  It is on my TODO list, but seems rather far off
before I will have time to code it.
