devnexen wrote to me that he has a PR up to fix that.

Looks like the PR will fix the problem.

But it didn't make it into the release? Then there's a somewhat buggy
varnish.m4 in 6.3.0. The workaround is to just ignore the error
messages, but they're going to be annoying to look at from now on.


Best,
Geoff
