The script is auto generated from the other files, but we do
make one or two adjustments to the macros to handle 64 bit
integers so it could be our problem, but I think this is
probably an autoconf bug.

I'll investigate and report, could well just need an upgrade to
my copy of autoconf.

Curiously our Solaris build worked, but I think that is a later
version of Solaris, and possibly not the GNU C compiler.
