The build is done from an RCS tarball, but auroconf/autoreconf is

Yes, I think that agrees with what I said. As I understand it:

If you take the latest RCS and run 'configure; make' it works.

If you take the latest RCS release and run 'autoconf;configure;make' with released Autoconf, it works.

If you take the latest RCS release, update its .m4 file with bleeding-edge Gnulib, and then run 'autoconf;configure;make' with bleeding-edge Autoconf, it works.

If you take bleeding edge Autoconf from Savannah Git, use bleeding-edge Autoconf, it works.

If you take the latest RCS release, but do not update its .m4 file with bleeding-edge Gnulib, and then run 'autoconf;configure;make' with bleeding-edge Autoconf anyway, it doesn't work. So don't do that; do one of the other things.
