Extended Description

When building the compiler (rev 16033) I get the following error message:
  Generating header file from M4 macro specification: std_gen.h
gm4: INTERNAL ERROR: recursive push_string!
/bin/sh: line 1: 14676 Abort trap              gm4 -I ../../src/runtime/m4 ../runtime/essentials_h/std_gen.h.m4 > ../runtime/essentials_h/std_gen.h
make[2]: *** [../runtime/essentials_h/std_gen.h] Error 134
make[1]: *** [make_default] Error 2
make: *** [default] Error 2
I use the m4 that comes with Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard).
