BSD m4 doesn't support --version unlike GNU m4 from devel/m4 installed as gm4. However, moz.configure fails to find m4 unless export M4=gm4.
$ c++ --version
FreeBSD clang version 11.0.0 (git@github.com:llvm/llvm-project.git llvmorg-11.0.0-rc5-0-g60a25202a7d)
Target: x86_64-unknown-freebsd13.0
Thread model: posix
InstalledDir: /usr/bin
$ ./mach bootstrap
$ ./mach build
[...]
checking for m4... /usr/bin/m4
Refreshing old-configure with build/autoconf/autoconf.sh
Autoconf requires GNU m4 1.1 or later
ERROR: autoconf exited with return code 1
*** Fix above errors and then restart with\
"./mach build"
gmake: *** [client.mk:115: configure] Error 1

Oops, wrong order. Look for gm4 before m4.
