You also tried the case where autoconf 2.68's autom4te reports m4 1.4.16,
right? That's the combination I'm using.
In any case, within your bison checkout, verify the output of this
command:
% head -1 m4/m4.m4
# m4.m4 serial 12
That's where AC_PROG_GNU_M4 is defined.

By "the advice", I meant my advice of not using development versions of
such tools when building bison. Sorry for the confusion.
