The build-many script is meant to decompress and compile the .tar.gz
archives.  For some reason, it seems the GNU m4 generated files are
missing (yet they should be in the .tar.gz archives).

If you want to build sablevm from a CVS snapshot, try instead:

aclocal ; libtoolize ; autoconf ; autoheader ; automake --foreign -a
=2E/configure \
 --prefix=3D/home/egagnon/work \
 --program-suffix=3D-debug \
 --libdir=3D/home/egagnon/work/lib/sablevm-debug \
 --enable-debugging-features \
 --disable-signals-for-exceptions \
 --with-gc=3Dcopying \
 --with-obj-layout=3Dbidirectional \
 --with-threading=3Dswitch
make ; make install ; etags -R

This builds a "debug" version. (You might want to look at Archie's
patch to keep symbols around).

Of course you might want to replace "/home/egagnon/work" by something
more appropriate, and specify different configure options.

Try "./configure --help" [after running "aclocal ; libtoolize ;
autoconf ; autoheader ; automake --foreign -a"].

I was watching exams all afternoon and evening (and busy answering
students questions in the morning)... So, I didn't read your message
soon enough. :(


Have fun!
