This is all as expected. Now you have to turn to your Makefile, and see
whether these gl_LIBOBJS are correctly reflected in that Makefile, and
why the setenv.o is not being built.
BTW, OS X by default comes with an ancient version of autoconf,
2.61,
if that affects things.
This should not be a problem. Gnulib supports all autoconf versions >= 2.59
(see the DEPENDENCIES file).
The logic behind how Gnulib chooses whether or not to include the
replacement function is fiendishly complex. Is there any way to force
it to include the replacement function?
Gnulib has already chosen to build the replacement function for setenv().
But something in or near your Makefiles is causing a problem.
