>Description:

I'm trying to use the word `unix' in an m4 file that I'm writing, and
I've found that the using the word "unix" fails badly, causing a syntax
error.

>How-To-Repeat:

% echo unix | m4
m4: eval: major botch
%

It should behave like the other builtins and return NULL:

% echo define | m4

%

>Fix:
	
None right now, I have to go home before I get shouted at by my S.O.  :-)
