m4/ax_boost_regex.m4 doesn't seem to exist in https://github.com/pbiggar/phc?

Oh, that's an upstream package, I think autoconf-archive. We probably havent updated
that in years, maybe this change has been incorporated already?

[pbiggar]

it's possible I'll see if I can find it upstream and see what it's state is

[pbiggar]

yes according to http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=autoconf-archive.git;a=blob;f=m4/ax_boost_regex.m4;hb=HEAD

this is already done upstream and should be updated at next release.

I think I once tried to include the packages we use from autoconf-archive into the m4
directory. Are there some packages in there? If so, we should upgrade these packages
in the phc repository.

[pbiggar]

it looks like phc uses ax_boost_base.m4, ax_boost_regex.m4, ax_lib_xerces.m4 so those
may all need to get updates though only ax_boost_regex.m4 is giving me configure problems
on darwin currently.

[pbiggar]

that seems right. You should just copy them into the m4 directory in the repo :)

I'll add them in and give you a pull request
