Re: 02-lineno.patch

[Akim Demaille]

Here is my fix.  Thanks a brand lot!

I have still not understood your srcdir comment.  configure does not
pay attention to $0, does it?

        * lib/m4sugar/m4sh.m4 (AS_SHELL_SANITIZE): Fix bugs spotted by
        Raja R Harinath:
        Be sure to detect when $LINENO always returns the same value.
        Look for the original script, basename($0) is certainly not
        enough.
        Pass the CLI arguments to $as_me.lineno.
