Description

There is a know test fail on M4 1.4.16: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-m4/2011-10/msg00000.html

Seems to related to Gnulib or Kernel, but seems not fatal as patches exist around to have successful tests. I've attached the patch to correct the test.

Considering the manpage (2) for readlink, I'd suggest sticking with EINVAL only (instead of EINVAL or ENOENT). Besides, an empty name is not a valid name "per se".

On a side note, this problem happens on another project as well, autoconf if I'm not mistaken. "find -name 'test-readlink*.h'" should do the trick of finding the culprit/header.
