PPL @0.11.2 configure error need M4 >= 1.4.5

[jourdain.benedicte@…]

Hi, I'm a newbie to macport on tiger 10.4.11 with ppc G5. Trying to build gcc 4.6.2, on dependency ppl-0.11.2 End of main.log in opt/....../ppl/main.log

:info:configure checking for GNU M4 that supports accurate traces... configure: error: no acceptable m4 could be found in $PATH.
:info:configure GNU M4 1.4.5 or later is required; 1.4.11 is recommended
:info:configure shell command " cd "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_devel_ppl/ppl/work/ppl-0.11.2" && ./configure --prefix=/opt/local " returned error 1
:error:configure Target org.macports.configure returned: configure failure: shell command failed (see log for details)

:info:configure Warning: the following items did not execute (for ppl): org.macports.activate org.macports.configure org.macports.build org.macports.destroot org.macports.install

There a m4.m4 in ppl/m4 checking that and /usr/bin/m4 with tiger is only 1.4.2 An install of m4 correct the problem. Thanks for your attention.
