If you have problems executing the +m4 program in the chroot'ed environment (for example when you install +the autoconf and automake packages) you'll have to exit the chroot'ed +environment and compile M4 statically. This way the binary is linked +against Glibc 2.0 (if you run kernel 2.0 you're Glibc version is 2.0 as +well on a decent system.
