So, I'm not an autoconf expert, by any means. However, I think the
source of your problem may be an offending "$" character in the
wackamole-2.0.0 configure.in, which has been removed in CVS. I've
attached a very simple patch that should fix your problem, if I am
correct. I haven't tested it myself, because I'm not close to my normal
working environment right now; please let me know if it works.
